Lecrae Announces Three Date New Zealand Tour This DecemberAs Part Of His Reconstruction World Tour

4x GRAMMY® Award-winning artist, author, actor and activist Lecrae has formally announced his headlining tour, ‘Reconstruction World Tour,’ on the heels of unveiling the release date for his tenth studio album, Reconstruction, due August 22nd.
Part of a 42-date run, Lecrae will return to New Zealand for the first time in a decade bringing his Reconstruction World Tour to Aotearoa for three headline shows this December. Kicking off at the Auckland Town Hall on Friday 5 December, he will then play Wellington’s Opera House on Saturday 6 December followed by James Hay Theatre in Christchurch on Sunday 7 December.
Tickets will be available starting with an artist pre-sale beginning Wedesday, July 30 at 10am local time. Additional pre-sales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on sale beginning Friday, August 1 at 10am local at ticketmaster.co.nz.
Making his anticipated return to the stage, the tour will mark one-year since Lecrae’s last outing in 2024 for ‘The Final Church Clothes Tour!’ The fan favorite is slated to perform songs from his decorated catalog, as well as music from his upcoming album Reconstruction.
Beyond the music, Lecrae has fostered a direct relationship with his local community. Last Monday (July 21), the Grammy-winner held a back-to-school drive in the heart of Atlanta alongside nonprofit City Takers. With over 100+ people in attendance, both fans and residents alike joined Lecrae in assembling backpacks filled with essential school supplies for students across the city.
As a special treat to fans, Lecrae revealed the features on Reconstruction with a one-of-a-kind mailer that went out to 1,000 of his most active supporters. Each mailer included a handwritten note from the Reach Records founder, and a QR code linking to The Workshop – an online community where fans can access early music, content, and engage to earn points for incentives.
Continuing his mission of bringing Christ to the culture, he now gears up to make international headlines with his renewed stage presence, ultimately setting the tone for an unstoppable and intentional run. The announcement also heralds the arrival of Lecrae’s forthcoming album Reconstruction – his first solo project since 2022’s Church Clothes 4 LP.

ABOUT
LECRAE
Multi Grammy-Award winning rap artist
Lecrae has left an indelible mark in the world of music and
entertainment. His music explores universal topics that
bind, challenging industry norms with his faith-based
rhyming style. He emerged in 2004 with the release of his
debut album, Real Talk, and launched his own label, Reach
Records. The perennial superstar has proved to not only be a
gospel success, but he’s also crossed over into hip-hop
and used his platform to foster a global fanbase. He’s
remained consistent and staunch relevant throughout the
2000s, proven repeatedly with groundbreaking albums such as
Rebel (2008), which made history as the first Christian
hip-hop album to reach #1 on Billboard’s Top Gospel Albums
chart; Gravity (2012), netting his first career Grammy; and
Anomaly (2017), the first Christian rap album to go gold.
The last song on Anomaly, titled “Messengers” with for
KING & COUNTRY, earned Lecrae his second Grammy win (for
Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song) at the
57th Grammy Awards. The LP also earned him his first No. 1
album on the Billboard 200. 2022 was highlighted by the
arrival of Church Clothes 4, and the deluxe version, Church
Clothes 4: Dry Clean Only, arrived in 2023 – thus
symbolizing the end of Lecrae’s popular mixtape series. In
2024, Lecrae started off the year by adding two more Grammys
under his belt – one for his Church Clothes 4 project
(Best Contemporary Christian Music Album) and the other for
his “Your Power” collaboration with Tasha Cobbs (Best
Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song). Over the
years, Lecrae has garnered many awards and accolades,
including four Grammy wins, two chart-topping gospel albums,
a gold and platinum certification, and countless honors.
Beyond the music, Lecrae’s prestige has grown
considerably. He’s a New York Times bestselling author,
using writing and activism to inspire local communities. The
latter is exemplified in his philanthropic work to help
instill hope in incarcerated individuals and bring attention
to mass incarceration. This has proven to be a recurring
theme in Lecrae’s previous partnerships with several
nonprofit organizations such as Love Beyond Walls, Prison
Fellowship and Send Musicians To Prison on similar
initiatives. As a record executive, Lecrae has provided a
pathway for artists who share his ethos such as Tedashii,
Trip Lee, Andy Mineo, 1K Phew, WHATUPRG, Wande, Hulvey, and
Limoblaze – all of whom are signed to his Reach Records
imprint. Simultaneously, he remains a pillar of the culture
at large, infiltrating the podcasting community with his
show ‘The Deep End With Lecrae.’ Throughout his career,
Lecrae continues to be a voice for positive change, and his
work amplifies his
impact.
