Justin Bieber is coming to Glendale on June 5 for a concert at State Farm Stadium.

He announced his 2020 tour on Christmas Eve accompanie­d by news that his new single, “Yummy,” is arriving Friday, Jan. 3, as the first advance track from his forthcomin­g 2020 studio album.

The tour launches in Seattle on May 14.

Bieber has amassed more than 50 billion streams and more than 60 million album equivalent­s worldwide. His Grammy-winning 2015 album “Purpose” has sold more than 21 million copies worldwide.

Bieber’s recent collaborat­ion with Ed Sheeran, “I Don’t Care,” hit No. 1 in 26 countries worldwide. Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” – with a Bieber remix – topped the U.S. charts, and his collaborat­ion on “10,000 Hours” with Dan + Shay became the highest charting debut for a country song in the history of the Billboard Hot 100.

In 2017, the Bieber-led global smash “Despacito Remix” broke streaming records and became the most-viewed video of all time.

“Purpose” topped the charts in more than 100 countries and garnered a 2016 Grammy nomination for Album Of The Year. The album shattered global streaming records and yielded three consecutiv­e No. 1 singles in the US – “What Do You Mean,” “Sorry” and “Love Yourself,” which received a Grammy nomination for Record Of The Year.

In February 2016, Bieber won his first Grammy: Best Dance Song for the “Purpose” track “Where Are U Now.”

Bieber launched his career in 2009 with the five-times-platinum worldwide hit “One Time” on his way to becoming the first artist to reach more than 10 billion views on VEVO.
