The “Edmotion” tour is believed to be a massive 23-date routing that will see the Calm Down crooner perform across major arenas, venues, and festival stages on multiple continents. The tour officially kicks off in Edmonton on April 11 and is expected to build momentum as Rema gears up for a major appearance at Coachella — one of the world’s most prestigious music festivals.
Fans attending the Edmotion tour will be treated to performances from Rema’s critically acclaimed 2023 album HEIS. The project earned widespread acclaim and featured on numerous “Best Albums of 2024” lists. It was also nominated for “Best Global Music Album” at the 2024 Grammy Awards, further cementing Rema’s position as one of Africa’s most influential musical exports.
Since breaking out with Iron Man and Dumebi, Rema has grown into a global sensation. His genre-blending style — merging Afrobeats, trap, pop, and alternative sounds — has made him a pioneer of what many call “Afro-rave.” His 2022 global hit Calm Down, especially the remix with Selena Gomez, took the world by storm, topping international charts and achieving multi-platinum certifications.
