Macklemore announces ‘Free Palestine’ tour after being dropped as Ed Sheeran support act
The tour, other acts for which will be announced soon, is due stop off at the OVO Arena at Wembley
Assessment
Macklemore's pivot from a high-profile support slot to a headline tour of his own signals a deliberate political stance over commercial alignment. The Wembley date gives the 'Free Palestine' message a major London platform. Watch for the other acts he recruits, since they will define how explicitly activist this tour becomes.
