The Rapture Tour was a concert tour by American rapper Eminem put together by Australian promoters - TEG Dainty. It was launched in support of his eighth studio album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (2013). Initial shows were announced in Australia and New Zealand on October 22, 2013.^[1] Eminem was accompanied on the tour by Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Jacob Linsley and Action Bronson.^[2] On the Oceania dates he was also accompanied by local rappers 360 and David Dallas.^[1] In 8 shows (including two dates at Wembley Stadium), Eminem sold over 315,000 tickets.

Critical reception

Darren Levin of The Guardian gave a positive review, calling the show a "half-day showcase of top-notch hip-hop talent" and commenting that Eminem has "lost none of the potency that made him such a revelation to teenagers coming of age in the early-2000s".^[3] Chris Schulz from The New Zealand Herald felt the show was "a breathless, exhilarating and seriously loud show from start to finish", though complained about 360's "ridiculous Aussie rave-rap".^[4] Michael Dwyer of The Canberra Times gave the show 3 1/2 out of 5 stars, praising Eminem's ability to remain "brilliantly in character" throughout his career.^[5]
