Macklemore has not announced any concerts in continental Europe or Ireland for 2027. As of 6 October 2026, his next European dates are in late October 2026: the 3Arena in Dublin on 26 October and the Accor Arena in Paris on 29 October, followed by the OVO Arena Wembley in London on 30 October. They are part of what he calls the Free Palestine Tour, announced on 24 September 2026.
The Seattle rapper is one of the most regular American visitors to European stages. Since 2018 he has toured the continent's arenas and halls twice, on the Gemini Tour in 2018 and the Ben Tour in 2023, played the Accor Arena in Paris in 2024, and in between he has spent almost every summer on the festival circuit in France, Germany and Belgium. His set lists, built around 'Thrift Shop', 'Can't Hold Us', 'Downtown' and 'Same Love', have barely left the region's summer line-ups.
This page explains what is and is not known about his plans for 2027 and gives a full account of his concerts in continental Europe and Ireland, from the Gemini Tour of April 2018 to the open-air Théâtre Antique in Orange in August 2026.
There is no official information about Macklemore concerts in Europe in 2027. No album, tour or festival booking for that year has been published. The only European dates on his schedule are the three October 2026 concerts in Dublin, Paris and London.
Those shows have an unusual background. In September 2026 Macklemore joined Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour as an opening act in the United States. On 4 September he performed 'Hind's Hall', his 2024 song in support of the pro-Palestinian campus protests, and spoke on stage about Palestine. His comments drew criticism from pro-Israel groups, and on 14 September he was removed from the tour after venue owners objected. On 24 September he announced his own Free Palestine Tour, with ticket sales to be donated to organisations supporting Palestinians.
For the European part, Dublin comes first on Monday 26 October 2026 at the 3Arena, a venue he has played four times before. Paris follows on Thursday 29 October at the Accor Arena, where he last appeared on 29 May 2024, and London on Friday 30 October. Guests had not been named at the time of the announcement, and other cities were said to be still to come.
Whether these October concerts lead to a wider European tour in 2027 is not known. His recent pattern has been a short spring arena run every few years and a long list of summer festivals, but nothing for summer 2027 has been confirmed. Until there is an official announcement, treat any list of 2027 European dates or any 'presale code' for them with suspicion.
Macklemore's solo career in Europe took off with the Gemini Tour in spring 2018, his first tour after the duo with Ryan Lewis went on hiatus. It began in Ireland with two nights at the 3Arena in Dublin on 3 and 4 April 2018; on the first night he told the crowd that his wife had just given birth to their second daughter. The tour then played Forest National in Brussels on 11 April, two nights at the Zénith in Paris on 13 and 14 April, AFAS Live in Amsterdam on 15 April, the Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen on 17 April and the Zenith in Munich on 19 April.
The second half of that run went through Italy and Germany: two nights at the Fabrique in Milan on 21 and 22 April, the Columbiahalle in Berlin on 27 April, the Alsterdorfer Sporthalle in Hamburg on 28 April, two nights at the Palladium in Cologne on 1 and 2 May and the Stadthalle in Offenbach am Main on 3 May 2018. Summer festivals followed, from Hanover and Gelsenkirchen in late May to the Ippodromo delle Capannelle in Rome on 3 July, Belfort, Saint-Nolff and the Château de Beauregard near Caen in early July, Cannes in August and the Domaine national de Saint-Cloud near Paris on 26 August 2018.
In 2019 he spent June and July on festival stages without a separate tour: the Hippodrome de Longchamp in Paris on 21 June, Scheeßel and Neuhausen ob Eck in Germany on 22 and 23 June, Werchter on 29 June, Marmande on 30 June, the Citadelle in Arras on 6 July, Argelès-sur-Mer on 8 July, the Piazza Napoleone in Lucca on 9 July and the Esplanade du Lac in Aix-les-Bains on 11 July. After the pandemic years he returned in 2022 with French festival dates in June, the Olympiastadion in Munich on 4 September and a short slot at the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf on 9 September 2022.
The Ben Tour, for his 2023 album, was his biggest European arena run. It opened with two nights at the 3Arena in Dublin on 3 and 4 April 2023 and continued to AFAS Live in Amsterdam on 16 April, Forest National on 17 April, the Zénith in Paris on 18 and 19 April, the Lanxess Arena in Cologne on 21 April, the Verti Music Hall in Berlin on 22 April, the Olympiahalle in Munich on 24 April, Offenbach on 25 April, Hamburg on 27 April and two nights at the Alcatraz in Milan on 3 and 4 May. Festivals in Marmande, Arras, Landerneau and Hasselt, and a show at the Olympiapark in Berlin on 10 September, completed the year.
In 2024 he played the Accor Arena in Paris on 29 May, then Hanover and Mönchengladbach at the start of June, Fuengirola in Spain on 21 June, the Roman arena in Nîmes on 11 July, Le Barcarès and Aix-les-Bains, and a run of August dates in Olbia, Charleville-Mézières, Weeze, Großpösna near Leipzig and Château-Gontier. In 2025 he headlined St Anne's Park in Dublin on 4 June and played Carhaix, the Hippodrome de Longchamp in Paris, Cuxhaven and Hasselt in July and August.
His most recent European shows came in summer 2026: the Alcatraz in Milan on 28 June, the Château de Beauregard on 1 July, Ronquières in Belgium on 9 August, Aussonne near Toulouse on 27 August and the Théâtre Antique in Orange on 29 August 2026, a 14-song set that included 'Hind's Hall'. Across all these years, France and Germany account for most of his European concerts, followed by Belgium, Italy and Ireland.
The table below lists 74 documented European concerts by Macklemore between 2018 and 2026, with the most shows in Paris (7), Milan (5), Dublin (5), Berlin (3), Hamburg (3), Munich (3). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.

Across the 15 most recent documented European concerts with a full song list (2 July 2023 to 29 August 2026), these are the songs that came up most often. Titles only — set lists change from night to night.
Festivals are the backbone of Macklemore's European career. Belgium has had him at Werchter, where he played the main stage on 29 June 2019, and at Kiewit near Hasselt, the site of Pukkelpop, on 20 August 2023 and again on 16 August 2025. In Germany he played the Eichenring in Scheeßel, home of the Hurricane Festival, on 22 June 2019, as well as large open-air events in Neuhausen ob Eck, Cuxhaven, Großpösna and Weeze.
France is where he has played the most festival dates. The archive shows the Plaine de la Filhole in Marmande, where Garorock is held, in 2019 and 2023; the Citadelle d'Arras, home of the Main Square Festival, in July 2019 and July 2023; the Château de Beauregard in 2018 and 2026; the Esplanade du Lac in Aix-les-Bains in 2019 and 2024; Carhaix in July 2025; and Saint-Cloud near Paris in August 2018. In all, the archive lists more than twenty French festival and open-air dates since 2018.
Benjamin Hammond Haggerty was born on 19 June 1983 in Seattle, Washington, and grew up in the city's Capitol Hill neighbourhood, in a family of Irish heritage. He began writing lyrics at fifteen, released the mixtape Open Your Eyes as Professor Macklemore in 2000 and his first album, The Language of My World, in 2005. He met the producer Ryan Lewis in 2006 and the two formalised their partnership in 2009 with The VS. EP.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's single 'Thrift Shop', featuring Wanz, became the first self-released song to top the Billboard Hot 100 in eleven years, and 'Can't Hold Us', featuring Ray Dalton, also reached number one, making them the first duo whose first two singles both topped the chart. Their album The Heist (2012) reached number two in the US and won the Grammy for Best Rap Album; the duo also won Best New Artist, Best Rap Song for 'Same Love' and Best Rap Performance for 'Thrift Shop'. This Unruly Mess I've Made, with 'Downtown', followed in 2016.
After the duo went on hiatus in 2017, Macklemore released the solo album Gemini that September, with 'Glorious' featuring Skylar Grey and 'Good Old Days' with Kesha; it reached number two in the US and number 13 in the UK. His third solo album, Ben, came out on 3 March 2023, with 'Chant' featuring Tones and I and 'Maniac' featuring Windser. He has spoken openly about addiction and recovery, including in a 2016 weekly address with President Barack Obama.
In May 2024 he released 'Hind's Hall', with all proceeds going to UNRWA. In September 2026 he joined Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour as an opening act in the United States and was removed from it on 14 September after his on-stage remarks about Palestine; he then announced the Free Palestine Tour, which reaches Dublin and Paris in October 2026.

Macklemore has Irish heritage, and Dublin has been the opening city of both his big European arena tours. He played two nights at the 3Arena on 3 and 4 April 2018 to start the Gemini Tour and two more on 3 and 4 April 2023 to start the Ben Tour. On both 4 April nights the set included 'Irish Celebration', a song he released in December 2009 that appears in no other European set list in the archive.
In 2025 he moved outdoors, headlining St Anne's Park in Dublin on 4 June with a 17-song set that included two versions of 'Hind's Hall'. The 3Arena show on 26 October 2026 will be his fifth night at that venue.
Paris has seen Macklemore more often than any other European city. He played two nights at the Zénith in April 2018 and two more in April 2023, the Accor Arena on 29 May 2024, and festival stages at Saint-Cloud in 2018 and the Hippodrome de Longchamp in 2019 and 2025.
The 2024 Accor Arena show ran to eleven songs, from 'Chant' and 'Thrift Shop' to 'Good Old Days' and 'Can't Hold Us', with 'Hind's Hall' in the middle. The October 2026 date at the same venue is his only announced French concert after the summer.
Germany has had more Macklemore shows than any other country in the archive. The spring tours of 2018 and 2023 both covered Cologne, Berlin, Munich, Hamburg and Offenbach am Main, and the 2023 tour added the Lanxess Arena in Cologne and the Olympiahalle in Munich.
Between tours he has played some of the country's biggest open-air sites: the Olympiastadion in Munich in September 2022, the Olympiapark in Berlin in September 2023, the SparkassenPark in Mönchengladbach and the Expo-Plaza in Hanover in 2024, and the Seeflughafen in Cuxhaven in July 2025. No German date has been announced for 2026 or 2027 so far.
Italy has been a smaller but steady stop. Milan saw two nights at the Fabrique in April 2018, two at the Alcatraz on 3 and 4 May 2023 and another Alcatraz show on 28 June 2026. He also played the Ippodromo delle Capannelle in Rome in July 2018, the Piazza Napoleone in Lucca in July 2019 and Olbia in Sardinia in August 2024.
The May 2023 Milan nights were among the longest of the Ben Tour, with 17 and 18 songs, including 'Maniac', 'Ain't Gonna Die Tonight' and 'Tail Lights'.
Recent Macklemore sets in Europe have been around 13 to 17 songs. A typical 2024 to 2026 show opens with 'Chant', goes straight into 'Thrift Shop' and 'White Walls', then 'Downtown' and 'Same Love', and closes with 'Glorious', 'Good Old Days' and 'Can't Hold Us'. Since 2024 'Hind's Hall' has been a regular part of the middle section, and at festivals in 2025 and 2026 he added the dance anthems 'Kernkraft 400' and 'Tequila'.
The Ben Tour arena shows of 2023 included more new songs, such as 'No Bad Days', 'Heroes', 'I Need', 'Tail Lights' and '1984', alongside 'Otherside' and 'And We Danced'. The 2018 Gemini Tour sets were a little longer, at 15 to 17 songs, opening with 'Ain't Gonna Die Tonight' and 'Firebreather' and featuring 'Marmalade', 'Willy Wonka' and 'Corner Store'.
Across all European shows in the archive, the songs he has played most are 'Thrift Shop' and 'Can't Hold Us', followed by 'Glorious', 'Same Love', 'Good Old Days', 'Downtown' and 'These Days'.
There are no Macklemore tickets for Europe in 2027, because no concerts have been announced for that year. Any site selling seats or 'presale codes' for 2027 European dates is not official.
For the October 2026 Free Palestine Tour dates, an artist presale was held on 28 September 2026 and general sale opened on 30 September 2026. Buy only through the official ticket outlets of each country, the venues' own websites and the artist's registration, and if a show is sold out, use only the official resale platform of the country concerned. Be careful with unofficial resale sites, where listed dates and prices can be wrong.
