Earlier this year, West was living at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of Atlanta Falcons, where he constructed a studio space to finish his now 10th album.
Though the album hasn't been released, West revealed "Donda" — named after his late mother — to fans last month at a crowded Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
West was born in Atlanta in 1977 and grew his roots in Chicago shortly after.
Tickets for the event at Soldier Field will go on sale Friday at noon. This will be West's first appearance at the stadium.
