MACKLEMORE (US) announces tour of Australia and New Zealand for May 2024
Macklemore will visit New Zealand for a concert at Wellington's TSB Arena on Wednesday, May 8 and Auckland's Spark Arena on Thursday, May 9. After that, he'll do four more shows in Australia, including Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on Saturday, May 11, John Cain Arena in Melbourne on Wednesday, May 15, Riverstage in Brisbane on Friday, May 17, and finally HBF Stadium in Perth on Monday, May 20.
Last in Australia in 2022, performing the headline slot for the fifth edition of Fridayz Live alongside fellow legendary artists such as Akon, TLC, and Craig David, Macklemore joyfully returned to his homeland and eagerly threw himself into the creation of his highly anticipated new album. After a six-year hiatus, fans eagerly awaited the release of his third solo studio album, aptly titled BEN, which finally hit the airwaves in 2023. Delivering a collection of outstanding tracks, Macklemore once again demonstrated his unwavering passion for music and showcased his exceptional lyricism with critical acclaim and unwavering admiration from his devoted fanbase. With notable features such as the irresistible ‘CHANT’ featuring Australia’s very own Tones And I, the infectious ‘NO BAD DAYS’ featuring Collett, the power-packed ‘HEROES’ featuring DJ Premier, and the mind-blowing ‘MANIAC’ featuring Windser, the rapper, singer, and songwriter left a lasting impression that left fans craving for more.
Macklemore's return to Australia in 2024 will feature tracks from his album BEN for the first time. With 13.2 billion streams, worldwide success, and critical acclaim, Macklemore is a top independent artist of the 21st century. His album GEMINI, released in 2017, reached #2 on the Billboard chart and #3 on the ARIA chart. GEMINI included the platinum-certified singles 'Glorious' and 'Good Old Days'. Macklemore's music videos have been viewed over 5 billion times, and he is one of only two rappers with a Diamond-certified single.
Don't miss his unforgettable performances in Australia and New Zealand in 2024.
