Eminem – Rapture 2019: SOLD OUT

The wait is finally over! Eminem will grace our shores for four massive Australian stadium shows in February 2019, performing in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and for the very first time, in Perth next year February. He will also travel to New Zealand performing for the first time in Wellington in March.

Eminem’s fiercely loyal Australian fans have been wishing for tour dates to be added in this territory, constantly spinning the rumour mill into overdrive, and now, their prayers have been answered—the rap god is on his way. Special guests who will join the lineup for this second instalment of the Rapture 2019 stadium tour will be announced soon.

Eminem's live show illustrates exactly why he remains the "greatest in the world" of hip hop. The Detroit rap icon's rapid fire flow, expansive phrasing and acerbic lyrics are awe-inspiring to witness live. On Eminem’s 2018 headline Coachella set, Rolling Stone gushed, "Everything that made Slim Shady one of the most essential voices of his generation was onstage this weekend."

When the 15-time Grammy Award-winner and biggest-selling rapper of all time dropped his surprise tenth studio album 'Kamikaze' unannounced, on 31 August this year, it was impossible to ignore, shooting straight to #1 on the Australian Albums chart where it retained pole position for four consecutive weeks, becoming the MC’s ninth chart-topping album in the country.

And the record-breaking rapper just keeps on racking up the accolades. 'Killshot', his standalone single, scored the highest 24-hour YouTube debut for a hip-hop video (the third-highest music video debut overall) upon its release last month.

Eminem's previous Australian visit for 2014's 'Rapture Tour' thrilled audiences at sold-out stadiums across the country and every seat was filled during his previous 'Lose Yourself' Australian tour in 2011. He has a penchant for selling out stadium shows in less than 30 minutes in this country.

Paul Dainty, President and CEO of TEG Dainty said: "Eminem is a global superstar and his live shows are phenomenal, we're proud to once again present his Australian tour."

Joining Eminem on his Rapture tour as special guests will be extraordinary artists that he, himself, handpicked. These are Hilltop Hoods, Royce da 5’9” and Boogie.

You do not wanna miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to catch Eminem live!
