Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027

Angus & Julia Stone bring the Karaoke Bar World Tour to Australia in February and March 2027: six shows in five cities, from the Adelaide Entertainment Centre Theatre on Saturday 13 February to Kings Park & Botanic Garden in Perth on Friday 5 March. Brisbane's Fortitude Music Hall, two nights at Forum Melbourne and the Sydney Opera House Forecourt complete the run. Artist and promoter pre-sales ran on 8 and 9 September 2026, and the general sale opened on Friday 11 September 2026.

The tour supports Karaoke Bar, the siblings' sixth studio album, released on 4 September 2026 and their third to reach No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart after Down the Way (2010) and Angus & Julia Stone (2014). It was made in Greece, France and Australia, and the duo launched it with in-store signings and short sets in Sydney and Melbourne on the weekend of release.

Below are the confirmed 2027 dates and venues, how tickets were sold and a long account of the duo's concerts in Australia and New Zealand, from a packed tent at Splendour in the Grass in 2006 to the Living Room Sessions theatre tour of 2024 and the outdoor shows of spring 2025.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: confirmed dates

The Karaoke Bar World Tour is a summer run built around large theatres and two of the country's best open-air sites. It opens in the 3,000-seat theatre of the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Saturday 13 February 2027 and moves to The Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane a week later, on Saturday 20 February.

Melbourne has the only double: Forum Melbourne on Thursday 25 and Friday 26 February, in the restored 1929 picture palace on the corner of Flinders and Russell Streets. Sydney follows on Sunday 28 February on the Forecourt of the Sydney Opera House, and the tour ends on Friday 5 March under the trees of Kings Park & Botanic Garden in Perth.

The route has a strong echo of the duo's 2015 summer tour, which also played Kings Park (4 February 2015), the Opera House Forecourt (20 February 2015) and the theatre of the Adelaide Entertainment Centre (24 February 2015). Twelve years on, they return to all three.

No New Zealand date is part of the Karaoke Bar World Tour as announced on 9 October 2026, although New Zealand audiences saw the duo as recently as August 2024, at the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre in Auckland. No support act had been named for the Australian shows.

Before the Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: Australia/NZ concert history

Angus & Julia Stone grew up in Newport on Sydney's Northern Beaches and started out at open-mic nights; their first gig as a pair was at the Coogee Bay Hotel, with Angus's song Tears. In July 2006 they played to about 200 people crammed into a small tent at Splendour in the Grass in Byron Bay, and in February 2007, after a slot at the Big Day Out, they played their first national tour of Australia, which sold out. Much of the next two years was split between Australian touring and the UK.

The setlist archive's detailed record begins with the self-titled album in 2014. Two nights at the Palais Theatre in St Kilda on 25 and 26 September 2014 were followed by the Civic Theatre in Auckland on Sunday 28 September. The summer tour that followed, billed in part as Come Home For Summer, went to Silo Park in Auckland on 26 January 2015, the Isaac Theatre Royal in Christchurch, Kings Park in Perth, the Darwin Entertainment Centre, Cairns, the Riverstage in Brisbane, the Opera House Forecourt on Friday 20 February, the theatre of the Adelaide Entertainment Centre and Costa Hall in Geelong on 26 February 2015.

Snow (2017) brought theatre shows at the Palais, the Enmore Theatre in Sydney and the Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide in September 2017, a New Zealand run in December (the Civic in Auckland, the St James Theatre in Wellington and the Isaac Theatre Royal in Christchurch) and then their most thorough Australian tour. Between 28 April and 27 May 2018 they played Eatons Hill in Brisbane, the Pilbeam Theatre in Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville, Munro Martin Parklands in Cairns, the Darwin Ski Club, Anita's Theatre in Thirroul, the University of Canberra Refectory, the Newcastle Civic Theatre, three nights at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney, the Ulumbarra Theatre in Bendigo, the Geelong Performing Arts Centre, Festival Hall and the Forum Theatre in Melbourne, the Odeon Theatre in Hobart, the Princess Theatre in Brisbane, Flinders University in Adelaide and two nights at the Fremantle Arts Centre.

The years around 2019 were full of outdoor shows: Hotel Rottnest on Rottnest Island and Glenelg Beach in December 2018, Sydney's Domain and the Riverstage the same month, Birrarung Marr in Melbourne on Australia Day 2019, King Edward Park in Newcastle, Torquay Common, and in New Zealand Trafalgar Park in Nelson in March 2019 and Church Road Winery in Napier in October 2019. Their last show before the pandemic shutdown was at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl on 26 February 2020. They returned with a summer run in January and February 2023 that took in Canberra, Thomas Dalton Park in Wollongong, the Esplanade Reserve in Fremantle, the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens in Hobart, Rochford Winery, Torquay, Coffs Harbour and the Gold Coast.

For Cape Forestier they played the Living Room Sessions in August 2024: the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre in Auckland on Saturday 3 August, the Concert Hall in Brisbane, three nights at the State Theatre in Sydney and two at the Palais Theatre, ending on Thursday 15 August 2024. In October and November 2025 they toured outdoor sites from Harrup Park in Mackay and Sandstone Point near Bribie Island to Roche Estate in the Hunter Valley, Berry Showground, Victoria Park in Ballarat, Queens Park in Toowoomba, Seppeltsfield in the Barossa, Mornington Racecourse and Sandalford Winery in the Swan Valley on Saturday 6 December 2025.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027 and Australia/NZ festivals

Festivals have been part of the duo's story from the start: Splendour in the Grass in 2006, the Big Day Out in January 2007, the Falls Festival over New Year 2007-08 and the Falls and Big Day Out circuits again in 2011. In December 2012, during their solo years, Angus and Julia each played their own sets at Homebake in Sydney.

The archive shows more since then: Byron Bay's Tyagarah Tea Tree Farm at Easter 2015, Waiohika Estate in Gisborne on New Year's Eve 2015, Queenscliff and Glenworth Valley in late 2015, the four Falls sites over New Year 2017-18 (Marion Bay, Lorne, North Byron Parklands and Fremantle), North Byron Parklands again in July 2018 and Making Gravy at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl on 14 December 2018.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: career and records

Julia (born 1984) and Angus Stone (born 1986) formed the duo in early 2006. Their first EP, Chocolates and Cigarettes, came out that August, and they moved to London, where Fran Healy of Travis helped them record. Their debut album, A Book Like This (2007), reached No. 6 on the ARIA Albums Chart and went platinum, with Paper Aeroplane, Private Lawns and The Beast.

Down the Way (2010) went to No. 1 in Australia and charted for 86 weeks in France. Big Jet Plane, first recorded by Angus on his solo album, became their biggest single and topped the Triple J Hottest 100 on Australia Day 2011. At the 2010 ARIA Awards they won five awards, including Album of the Year and Single of the Year.

After a break in which both released solo albums, Rick Rubin brought them back together for Angus & Julia Stone (2014), recorded in Malibu, which reached No. 1 in Australia and the top 10 in France, Germany, the Netherlands and New Zealand. Snow (2017), made at Angus's studio near Byron Bay, reached No. 2 and gave them Chateau, No. 3 in the Hottest 100 of 2017.

In 2021 they wrote the soundtrack to the video game Life Is Strange: True Colors. Cape Forestier followed in May 2024 and reached No. 5, and Karaoke Bar came out on 4 September 2026.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: two nights at Forum Melbourne

Melbourne is the only city with two shows, on Thursday 25 and Friday 26 February 2027, and the venue is one of the most distinctive rooms in the country. The Forum opened in 1929 as the State Theatre, an atmospheric theatre designed by John Eberson with a Moorish exterior and a blue ceiling lit like a night sky; it has been a live music venue since 1995 and holds about 2,000 standing.

The duo last played the Forum on 20 May 2018, the night after Festival Hall, and their recent Melbourne shows have been at the Palais Theatre (2014, 2017 and two nights in 2024) and the Sidney Myer Music Bowl (2018 and 2020).

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: the Opera House Forecourt and Kings Park

Two of the six shows are outdoors. The Forecourt of the Sydney Opera House, on Sunday 28 February, sits between the sails and the harbour; the duo played it on 20 February 2015 with a 14-song set. Their Sydney shows since have been at the Enmore Theatre, three nights at the Hordern Pavilion, the Domain and three nights at the State Theatre in 2024.

Perth's show on Friday 5 March is in Kings Park, the 400-hectare park on Mount Eliza above the city, where they opened the 2015 summer tour with Heart Beats Slow. Western Australia has seen them often, at Cottesloe Beach, Rottnest Island, the Fremantle Arts Centre, the Falls site at Fremantle and Sandalford Winery.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: touring the regions

Few Australian acts of their size have played as many regional towns. The 2018 tour reached Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville, Cairns, Darwin, Bendigo, Geelong and Hobart, and the outdoor runs of 2023 and 2025 went to Coffs Harbour, Torquay, Toowoomba, Ballarat, Berry, Mannum and Mackay again.

The 2027 tour is the opposite: five capitals and no regional dates. Fans outside the big cities can sign up for the alert below in case regional shows are added later.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027: New Zealand

At the Palais Theatre on 15 August 2024 they opened with Santa Monica Dream and Losing You, played Yellow Brick Road, Nothing Else, Private Lawns, Cape Forestier, The Wedding Song and For You, then an alternate version of Chateau and Big Jet Plane, closing with Neil Young's Harvest Moon. The Auckland show that opened the run had the same set.

Their 2025 outdoor sets were shorter, around seven to ten songs, typically opening with a cover of Streets of Your Town and ending with For You, Big Jet Plane and Chateau; at Berry Showground on 26 October 2025 they also covered In the Air Tonight.

The first Karaoke Bar songs played live came at the in-store show at Soundmerch in Melbourne on 6 September 2026: Karaoke Bar, Wherever You Are, Celestial Bodies, The Cherry Farm, For You and Big Jet Plane. The full tour set has not been published.

Angus & Julia Stone Australia Tour 2027 tickets and presales

Artist and promoter pre-sales took place on 8 and 9 September 2026, and the general sale opened on Friday 11 September 2026 through the official ticketing outlets of each venue; the Sydney Forecourt show is also sold through the Sydney Opera House box office.

Most shows use name-locked mobile tickets, so buy only from the official outlets or their authorised resale service. There is no public Angus & Julia Stone presale code to buy or share, and listings on social media promising cheap or guaranteed tickets are not genuine.

The Forecourt and Kings Park shows are outdoors, so check each venue's conditions of entry before the night. Sign up below for the alert to hear about returned tickets, extra shows or a New Zealand date.
