Eminem starts his ‘Revival’ with new summer dates

2nd February 2018 | Category: Concerts

Eminem fans will have plenty of opportunities to see their favorite rapper live this year since Slim Shady singer has announced some huge dates. He will first land a few headlining festival gigs and then go for a run through Europe with new dates just being announced. Tickets for his performances are available here.

This year, Eminem is performing at the biggest festivals. He is co-headlining Coachella in April, Boston Calling in May and then Governor’s Ball and Bonnaroo in June. This will be Eminem’s Coachella debut alongside The Weeknd and Beyonce, who postponed her performance last year due to her pregnancy.

At the end of June, he will fly overseas to headline the Obos Oslo Sommertime Festival in Norway to launch his European leg. After six performances in Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands, Italy, Germany and Switzerland, he will wrap up his tour with a two-night residency at the Twickenham Stadium in London.

Eminem last toured in the UK in 2014 so fans are eager to see him again. He became the first rapper ever to sell out Wembley Stadium and there’s no doubt the same will happen with the dates on 14 and 15 July. This stadium hosted various NFL games and has capacity of 82,000.

This tour is in support of his ninth studio album Revival, which was long-anticipated and came out in December 2017 after a four-year-break. The album was preceded with two singles, “Untouchable” and “Walk on Water” featuring Beyonce. Revival consists of 19 tracks and includes appearances by Ed Sheeran, Pink, Alicia Keys, Kehlani, Skylar Grey and Phresher. Although this Trump-criticizing album received a lot of negative critics, it debuted at number one in the UK and became the Christmas number one album for 2017.

With nine number one albums on the Billboard 200 and 155 million records sold globally, Eminem is the best-selling artist of 2000s in the United States. In 2002 he acted in the hip hop movie “8 Mile” which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song “Lose Yourself”, becoming the first rap artist ever to win this prestigious award. Now this singer, song writer, record producer and artist is back, big style.

Tickets for his maestral performances can be purchased here.
