Scott had previously performed at private events in Southern California since the Astroworld tragedy.
The deadly incident took place during Scott's performance set on the evening of Friday, November 5, in his hometown of Houston, Texas.
It spawned countless legal woes for Scott, as well as intense public backlash for his alleged handling of the deadly incident.
He was also sacked as a 2022 Coachella headliner, as well as a headliner for the Day N Vegas festival last year.

Sharing the club flyer with his massive online following, the rapper wrote: 'Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'
Tickets cost $150 for women and $250 for men at the 21+ Florida venue, and TMZ reported last month that VIP tables may have cost well over $100K.
It was reported that some fans paid up to $50,000 for reservations.
It was also announced last month that Scott is expected to perform at his first festival since Astroworld this coming November.
