Following extraordinary demand for tickets, resulting in pre-sale allocation immediately selling out in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, extra dates have been added to Tame Impala’s 2026 Australian tour.


Second shows have been confirmed in all three cities. The three extra shows will take place at Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Sunday, 11 October, Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Thursday, 15 October, and Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Tuesday, 20 October.

Tickets for the new shows will be available from 11 am AEDT in today’s pre-sale. After the pre-sale concludes, general sale tickets for the three additional dates – as well as the four shows initially announced yesterday – will be available on Friday, 27 February, at 11 am local time.

Update 26/02/2026: A third Melbourne date and a second Perth show have been added to the tour, following phenomenal demand. The newly added dates are: Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Friday, 16 October, and Perth’s RAC Arena on Sunday, 25 October.

Tickets for all shows – including the new Melbourne and Perth dates – will be available on Friday, 27 February, at 11 am local time.

Head to the Frontier Touring website for more information.

Update 27/02/2026: Seven arena shows have sold out, so Frontier Touring have added third and final shows in Brisbane and Sydney, as well as a fourth and final show in Melbourne.

The new shows are: Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Friday, 9 October, Rod Laver Arena on Saturday, 17 October, and Qudos Bank Arena on Wednesday, 21 October. Tickets to all shows – including the newly announced ones – are available now.

The forthcoming tour marks the first Tame Impala tour since the 2022 The Slow Rush run, and the first time that Australian fans will hear songs from the new album, Deadbeat, live.

Joining Tame Impala on all dates is one of the hottest names in Australian music: electronic artist, songwriter, and producer Ninajirachi.

Last year was the producer’s – born Nina Wilson – biggest year to date, taking home the 2025 Australian Music Prize, NSW Music Prize, two J Awards (including Album of the Year), and three ARIA Awards for her debut album, I Love My Computer.

Tame Impala – masterminded by singer, multi-instrumentalist and producer Kevin Parker – has also received mass acclaim of late.

New album Deadbeat topped the charts in Australia, while the recent hit single Dracula reached #3 on this year’s triple j Hottest 100. Earlier this month, Parker won his second Grammy Award – for Best Dance/Electronic Recording – for the near-seven-minute dance opus, End of Summer.
