Macklemore's concerts in support of Palestine are sold out

Macklemore shared a post about the issue on his social media account.

In his post, Macklemore stated that the tickets for the three concerts of the tour were sold out instantly and used the following statements:

"I was frankly amazed. We quickly organized these concerts, believing that musicians could stand in solidarity with Palestine, use the stage to raise funds and show what collective action could look like. When those in power try to silence our calls for freedom, art will always be a form of resistance. Dublin, Paris and London, thank you for supporting in this way. The interest in these concerts is a reminder once again how many people around the world stand together for a free Palestine. The concert programs will be announced soon. We look forward to being together."

Macklemore dropped from Sheeran's US tour

American rapper Macklemore was removed from the remaining concerts of singer Ed Sheeran's US tour after he gave messages of support for Palestine.

After Macklemore was removed from the tour, Sheeran's other opening artists also announced that they would withdraw from the tour.

Tour owner Sheeran was criticized for remaining mostly silent about the genocide in Gaza.

The decision to remove Macklemore from the tour due to his support for Palestine was met with intense reaction by many people on social media.

Support from Macklemore to Gaza

Grammy-winning American rapper Macklemore has publicly expressed his support for Palestine many times since 2023, when Israel's attacks on Gaza began.

Macklemore donated the proceeds of the song "Hind's Hall 2", which he prepared with Palestinian artists in support of Gaza, to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), which Israel targeted with false claims.
