Hip-hop star and storyteller Rod Wave is closing out 2025 with massive box office success, as his highly anticipated “The Redemption Experience Tour” sells out major arenas across North America. The limited, seven-show December run, which supports his critically acclaimed 2024 album Last Lap, has proven the artist’s immense drawing power, confirming his status as one of the genre’s biggest touring acts.
The overwhelming demand for tickets immediately showcased the tour’s sell-out potential. Promoters were forced to quickly add second nights in high-demand markets, including the United Center in Chicago and State Farm Arena in Atlanta, to meet fan appetite. The rapid sell-out of multiple dates underscores the deep connection fans have with Rod Wave’s raw and relatable storytelling.
Though official box office gross figures for the current leg are pending, the tour is undoubtedly banking big. Rod Wave has an established average gross of over $1.3 million per show. Resale ticket prices further reflect the high demand, with entry into venues like Philadelphia’s Xfinity Mobile Arena and Brooklyn’s Barclays Center starting well over $200 for the remaining December dates.
With over 15 billion career streams, Rod Wave continues to push the limits of his independent success. The Rod Wave Redemption Experience Tour serves as the latest, most powerful proof of his ability to sell out the largest venues in the country, cementing his “Redemption” as a chart-topping and touring phenomenon.
