The multi-platinum and Grammy-award-winning artist returns to New Zealand in May 2024.

Following a successful North America run in 2023, Macklemore will begin his 2024 tour of Australia and New Zealand at Wellington’s TSB Arena in May.

The American singer-songwriter will be touring his third solo studio album, ‘Ben’. Released in 2023, it includes chart-topping singles ‘Chant’, ‘No Bad Days’, ‘Heroes’, and ‘Maniac’. Alongside his back catalogue of crowd favourites and unforgettable live presence, this is a show you won’t want to miss.

Previously, Macklemore released two albums with producer Ryan Lewis. With hits like ‘Thrift Shop’, ‘Can’t Hold Us’, and ‘Downtown’, the duo earned multiple Grammy’s and platinum-certifications.
