Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027

Dean Lewis has not announced any concerts in Australia or New Zealand for 2027. As of 9 October 2026 there is no tour, festival booking or one-off show on the calendar in either country, and no new album has been announced to follow The Epilogue, released in October 2024.

The Sydney singer-songwriter behind 'Waves', 'Be Alright' and 'How Do I Say Goodbye' last toured at home on The Epilogue World Tour in October and November 2024, playing arenas and large theatres from Newcastle to Perth and three theatre shows in New Zealand. Since October 2025 his public activity has been limited, after he announced a hiatus.

This page sets out what is and is not known about his plans and gives a full account of his concerts in Australia and New Zealand, from pub and club dates in 2017 to two nights at Rod Laver Arena in November 2024, including his festival appearances and the songs that have defined his sets.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: what is announced so far

There is no official information about Dean Lewis concerts in Australia or New Zealand in 2027. His most recent shows in the region were the Australian and New Zealand dates of The Epilogue World Tour, which ended at Kings Park and Botanic Garden in Perth on Saturday 23 November 2024. No home dates have been announced since.

In October 2025 Lewis was the subject of sexual misconduct allegations on social media. He responded on Instagram, admitting wrongdoing while rejecting any claim of illegal behaviour, and announced a hiatus. In November 2025 his nominations for the 2025 ARIA Awards and the 2025 TikTok Awards were withdrawn, and by the end of 2025 he and Universal Music had parted ways. In March 2026 one person whose TikTok video had helped spread the allegations posted a public apology for making claims without checking them; in the same month a court in Amsterdam dismissed an injunction application Lewis had brought against a Dutch woman.

In December 2025 a spokesperson said that the North American dates of The Epilogue World Tour, rescheduled to January 2026 after a vocal haemorrhage earlier in 2025, would go ahead. No Australian or New Zealand concert has been announced at any point since.

Until there is an official announcement, treat any list of 2027 Dean Lewis dates, any 'presale code' and any ticket listing for 2027 with suspicion. If he confirms concerts in Australia or New Zealand, this page will be updated with the dates, venues and sale details.

Before the Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: Australia/NZ concert history

Dean Lewis's live story in Australia began a year after 'Waves' was released on 30 September 2016. The setlist archive shows a Lose My Mind Tour date at the Workers Club in Geelong in November 2017, club shows at Badlands Bar in Perth on Thursday 16 November 2017, the Factory Theatre in Sydney, the Zoo in Brisbane and the Great Northern Hotel in Byron Bay in December 2017, and a summer of festival slots from late 2017 into January 2018.

His first national headline run as a bigger draw was the 2018 Australian Summer Tour, which came after 'Be Alright' had spent five weeks at number one in Australia. It opened at the Astor Theatre in Perth on Tuesday 4 December 2018 with two nights there, then went to the Governor Hindmarsh Hotel in Adelaide, the Metro Theatre in Sydney, the Triffid in Brisbane and the Croxton Park Hotel in Melbourne with second nights in several cities.

The A Place We Knew tour followed the debut album's release on 22 March 2019. In New Zealand it played the Auckland Town Hall on Friday 3 May 2019, and in Australia the Enmore Theatre in Sydney on Monday 6 May, HBF Stadium in Perth and two nights at the Forum Theatre in Melbourne on 18 and 19 May 2019. In September 2019 he performed 'Be Alright' and 'Waves' at the AFL Grand Final at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

After the pandemic years, the Sad Boi Winter Summer Tour of November and December 2022 went deep into theatres and regional centres: Miami Marketta on the Gold Coast on Thursday 10 November, the Riverside Theatre in Perth, the AEC Theatre in Adelaide, two nights at the Enmore Theatre, Canberra Theatre, Albury Entertainment Centre, the Odeon Theatre in Hobart, three nights at the Forum Theatre in Melbourne, Costa Hall in Geelong, Ulumbarra Theatre in Bendigo and the Newcastle Civic Theatre on Tuesday 6 December 2022. The Future Is Bright Tour of March 2023 then took him to the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on Friday 10 March and Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne, and to New Zealand for the Opera House in Wellington, the Christchurch Town Hall and the Civic Theatre in Auckland on Saturday 18 March 2023.

The Epilogue World Tour was his biggest home run. Announced in June 2024 alongside the album, it opened at the Newcastle Civic Theatre on Wednesday 30 October 2024 and played the Riverstage in Brisbane, two nights at the ICC Sydney Theatre, MyState Bank Arena in Hobart, two nights at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on 7 and 8 November, the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre in Auckland, the Christchurch Town Hall, the Michael Fowler Centre in Wellington on Sunday 17 November, the Adelaide Entertainment Centre and finally Kings Park and Botanic Garden in Perth on 23 November 2024.

Earlier, over the 2017-18 summer, he appeared at outdoor sites including Broadwater Parklands on the Gold Coast, Parramatta Park, Commonwealth Park in Canberra, Forbes Showground, Lardner Park in Warragul, the Farm in Wonthaggi, the Glenworth Valley festival site and Birrarung Marr in Melbourne.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: career and records

Dean Lewis Grant Loaney is an Australian singer and songwriter. He has said he decided to pursue music after watching a live Oasis DVD in 2005 and spent the following years learning songwriting from Noel Gallagher's videos. Before that he had represented Australia in Halo 2 at the World Cyber Games in Singapore in 2005. He signed with Specific Music in 2014 and with Island Records and Universal Music Australia in March 2016.

'Waves', released on 30 September 2016, peaked at number 12 on the ARIA chart, was used in American TV series including Grey's Anatomy and Suits, and has been certified seven times platinum in Australia. The EP Same Kind of Different (2017) reached number 27, with 'Lose My Mind' and 'Chemicals' as singles, and earned him five ARIA nominations.

'Be Alright' (2018) was a breakthrough: five weeks at number one in Australia, number one in Belgium, top five in New Zealand and top 30 in the United States, where it topped the Billboard Adult Pop chart. His debut album A Place We Knew (2019) went to number one in Australia, and he collaborated with Martin Garrix on 'Used to Love' the same year.

The Hardest Love (2022) reached number four, carried by 'Hurtless' and 'How Do I Say Goodbye', which spread worldwide on social media and was certified gold or platinum in ten countries. In 2024 he opened shows for AJR, then released The Epilogue in October 2024, which reached number two. He has won three ARIA Awards from 16 nominations and seven APRA Awards.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: from pubs to arenas

Few Australian artists of his generation have climbed the touring ladder as quickly. In late 2017 Dean Lewis was playing rooms such as Badlands Bar in Perth and the Workers Club in Geelong; a year later he was adding extra nights at the Metro Theatre and the Croxton Park Hotel; by May 2019 he was at the Enmore and the Forum; and in November 2024 he played two nights at Rod Laver Arena.

The jump reflects the reach of his songs rather than any single hit. 'Waves' kept selling for years, 'Be Alright' became one of the most successful Australian singles of its time with eleven times platinum certification, and 'How Do I Say Goodbye' found a new, younger audience online in 2022.

Any future home tour would therefore start from arena level in the larger cities, although nothing is announced for 2027.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: Melbourne nights

Melbourne has hosted more Dean Lewis shows than any other city in the archive. He played the Croxton Park Hotel three times in late 2018, two nights at the Forum Theatre in May 2019 and three more in November 2022, Margaret Court Arena in March 2023 and two nights at Rod Laver Arena on Thursday 7 and Friday 8 November 2024.

The Rod Laver Arena shows had 20 to 21 songs, opening with 'Memories' and closing with 'How Do I Say Goodbye' and 'Be Alright', and included a cover of Coldplay's 'Fix You' and Taylor Swift's 'Cruel Summer'.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: New Zealand

New Zealand has been part of every Dean Lewis tour since the debut album. He played the Auckland Town Hall in May 2019, Wellington's Opera House, the Christchurch Town Hall and Auckland's Civic Theatre in March 2023, and the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, the Christchurch Town Hall and the Michael Fowler Centre in November 2024.

'Be Alright' reached the top five of the New Zealand chart, which helps explain why his New Zealand shows moved into larger halls each time. No New Zealand dates have been announced for 2027.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: the regional theatre tour

The Sad Boi Winter Summer Tour of 2022 stood out for its regional stops. Alongside the capitals it played Albury Entertainment Centre, Costa Hall in Geelong, Ulumbarra Theatre in Bendigo, the Odeon Theatre in Hobart and the Newcastle Civic Theatre.

Those theatres are smaller than the arenas he could fill in the cities, and the tour gave fans outside the capitals a rare chance to see him in a seated setting. Whether a future tour would repeat that model is unknown.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027: what to expect live

A Dean Lewis headline show in recent years has run to about 17 to 22 songs. The setlist archive shows that the core of the show has stayed remarkably stable from tour to tour, with the big singles placed at the end.

On The Epilogue World Tour in 2024 the set mixed new songs such as 'Memories', 'Empire', 'All I Ever Wanted', 'With You', 'Trust Me Mate' and 'Rest' with older favourites: 'Hold of Me', '7 Minutes', 'Chemicals', 'Stay Awake', 'Half a Man', 'Hurtless' and 'Waves'. The show built to 'How Do I Say Goodbye' and finished with 'Be Alright'.

Covers have been a regular part of his sets: 'Iris' on the 2022 tour, 'Yellow' in 2023, 'When You Were Young' at Splendour in 2019, and 'Fix You' and 'Cruel Summer' at Rod Laver Arena in 2024.

Dean Lewis Australia Tour 2027 tickets and presales

There are no Dean Lewis tickets on sale for Australia or New Zealand in 2027, because no concerts have been announced as of 9 October 2026. Any site selling seats or offering a 'presale code' for 2027 dates is not official.
