Macklemore and Ryan Lewis haven’t been home for more than a few days since The Heist dropped last October. Their relentless tour schedule embodies the idea of striking while the iron is hot (and with multiple no. 1 singles, the proverbial iron is muy caliente). The hip-hop duo finally gets a proper homecoming when it closes out its U.S. arena tour headlining KeyArena on December 12. The guys aren’t skimping on the lineup either, bringing in Talib Kweli and Big K.R.I.T. as opening acts. This holiday party is going to blow the rest out of the water.

Presale tickets are available now through Macklemore’s official website (UPDATE: scratch that, they sold out in 10 minutes) and tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, June 28 at 10am through Ticketmaster.

Update: Due to overwhelming demand, Macklemore and Lewis have added a second show on December 11. Tickets go on sale July 2 at 10am at ticketmaster.com.

Update #2: The ticket demand continues to be crazy, so Macklemore and Lewis have added a third show on December 10. Tickets go on sale July 10 at 10am at ticketmaster.com.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis
Dec 11 & 12, KeyArena, $35–$55
