Northlane Australia Tour 2027

Northlane have not announced any Australian or New Zealand concerts for 2027. As of 9 October 2026 their next home shows are in 2026, not 2027: the Anemoia album tour visits Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, Newcastle and Brisbane between 5 and 14 November 2026, followed by the Powerstation in Auckland on Sunday 22 November 2026. The only 2027 dates published so far are a North American headline tour that starts in Sacramento, California, on 12 February 2027.

The Sydney band, formed in Blacktown in 2009, are among the most successful Australian heavy acts of their generation. Node (2015) and Obsidian (2022) both went to No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, and Node, Mesmer and Alien each won the ARIA Award for Best Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Album. Their seventh studio album, Anemoia, is due on 30 October 2026, a week before the tour opens.

At home Northlane play at every level, from arena support slots and festival main stages to suburban pubs. In the past four years alone the setlist archive lists a 2022 regional tour that reached Wagga Wagga, Gladstone and Cairns, the Dante Tour of February 2024 with two nights at the Forum Theatre in Melbourne, a long regional run in winter 2025 and a further regional tour in March and April 2026.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: what is announced so far

As of 9 October 2026, no Northlane concert in Australia or New Zealand has been announced for 2027. The band's next Australian shows are the November 2026 Anemoia tour, with After the Burial from the United States, Sydney's Cenobia and Above, Below in support: Metro City in Perth on Thursday 5 November, Festival Hall in Melbourne on Saturday 7 November, Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide on Sunday 8 November, the Enmore Theatre in Sydney on Wednesday 11 November, Bar on the Hill in Newcastle on Friday 13 November and Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on Saturday 14 November.

New Zealand also gets a 2026 date: the Powerstation in Auckland on Sunday 22 November 2026, with Bloom and Crooked Royals in support. That show is the band's first New Zealand headline date since March 2025, when they played San Fran in Wellington.

For 2027, the only announced Northlane shows are in North America, starting on 12 February 2027 in Sacramento. Nothing has been published about a second Australian leg, a regional tour or festival bookings in Australia or New Zealand for 2027. In the past the band has often followed a capital-city album tour with a regional run months later (the Dante Tour of February 2024 was followed by Hobart, Forth and Adelaide in November 2024 and by a regional tour in 2025), but that is a pattern, not an announcement.

This page will be updated if Northlane confirm Australian or New Zealand dates for 2027. Sign up for the alert below to hear about it first.

Before the Northlane Australia Tour 2027: Australia/NZ concert history

Northlane built their name on the road. After the Hollow Existence EP in 2010 they toured Australia and earned a reputation as a tireless live act. Discoveries (2011) was followed by a national Discoveries tour, support slots for August Burns Red and House Vs Hurricane, and Parkway Drive's Sick Summer tour in February 2012. In December 2012 Parkway Drive took them into arenas on the Atlas tour, and in January 2013 Northlane headlined a regional Australian tour with In Hearts Wake and Endless Heights, adding a make-up show at The Cavern in Adelaide after a missed flight. The Singularity tour later in 2013 featured Structures, Stray from the Path and Statues, and in August 2013 they supported Karnivool around Australia.

In May 2014 the band curated its own touring festival, Free Your Mind, with Thy Art Is Murder, Veil of Maya, Volumes and Make Them Suffer; every date sold out in advance. After Marcus Bridge replaced founding vocalist Adrian Fitipaldes, Northlane and In Hearts Wake co-headlined an Australian tour in June 2016 to launch their joint EP Equinox, with Hands Like Houses and Ocean Grove opening. The live album Analog Future (2018) includes 'Citizen' recorded in Melbourne on 20 October 2017, and the Alien tour of 2019 needed a second Melbourne show after the first sold out. The hometown concert at the Roundhouse in Sydney in October 2019 was released in 2020 as Live at the Roundhouse.

New Zealand appears early in the setlist archive. Northlane played Zeal West in Auckland on Thursday 29 November 2012 and Void in Hamilton the next night, returned to Zeal West on Friday 5 April 2013 with the Singularity Tour, and visited the Kings Arms in Auckland and San Fran in Wellington in November 2016 and again in August 2017 on the Mesmer tour. On Saturday 26 October 2019 the Alien World Tour reached Galatos in Auckland.

The Obsidian era started with an Australian tour in June 2022 with Plini, Sleep Token and ALT, according to Wikipedia. The archive then shows an unusually wide Regional Australian Tour in November and December 2022: Crowbar in Sydney on Wednesday 16 November, Tilly's in Wagga Wagga, The Basement in Canberra, Wollongong's UniBar, the Cambridge Hotel in Newcastle, Manly Leagues Club, the Evan Theatre in Penrith, the Racehorse Hotel in Ipswich, The Coolangatta Hotel, Caloundra, Gladstone, Mackay, Townsville, the Tanks Arts Centre in Cairns, then Geelong's Wool Exchange, the Pier Bandroom and Hobart's Uni Bar a week before Christmas.

The Dante Tour of February 2024 was a capital-city run: Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on Friday 9 February, the Enmore Theatre in Sydney on Saturday 10 February, the Forum Theatre in Melbourne on 11 and 15 February, the Hindley Street Music Hall in Adelaide and Metro City in Perth on Saturday 17 February, plus a later stop at Tilly's in Wagga Wagga on 15 March. In New Zealand the band played Studio The Venue in Auckland and Butlers Reef in New Plymouth in December 2023, then San Fran in Wellington on Sunday 9 March 2025 and a show at Spark Arena in Auckland two days later.

Regional Australia came back into focus in 2025 and 2026. From Thursday 31 July 2025 the band played Gladstone, the Sunshine Coast, Toowoomba, the Gold Coast, Newcastle, Penrith, Wollongong, Canberra, Busselton, Magnet House in Perth, Albury, the Theatre Royal in Castlemaine, Geelong and Chelsea Heights Hotel in Melbourne on 24 August. The Regional Tour 2026 opened at The Warehouse in Townsville on Thursday 26 March 2026 and went on to Mackay, Rockhampton, Crowbar in Brisbane, the Miranda Hotel in Sydney, Gosford, Torquay, Stay Gold in Melbourne, Altar in Hobart and the Bridge Hotel in Forth on Saturday 18 April 2026, the latest Northlane show in the archive.

The table below lists 70 documented Australia/NZ concerts by Northlane between 2012 and 2026, with the most shows in Melbourne (8), Sydney (6), Auckland (6), Brisbane (4), Hobart (3), Wellington (3). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027 and Australia/NZ festivals

Northlane are regulars on Australia's heavy festival circuit. According to Wikipedia they played Soundwave and Pushover in 2013, the Big Day Out in January 2014 and Groovin the Moo in 2015. They premiered 'Intuition' at the Unify Gathering in Tarwin Lower in January 2017 and joined the first Good Things festival in December 2018 with new bassist Brendon Padjasek, debuting 'Talking Heads' there.

The setlist archive adds the Knotfest Australia shows of March 2023 (Melbourne on Friday 24 March, Centennial Park in Sydney on 25 March and Brisbane on 26 March), Mindil Beach in Darwin on Saturday 18 May 2024, and Good Things again in December 2024, with 10-song sets in Melbourne on 6 December, Sydney on 7 December and Brisbane on 8 December. No Australian or New Zealand festival has announced Northlane for 2027 as of 9 October 2026.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: career and records

Northlane formed in Blacktown, in Sydney's west, in 2009, with Jon Deiley, Josh Smith, Brendan Derby, Alex Milovic and singer Adrian Fitipaldes. They took their name from 'North Lane', a 2007 track by the British band Architects. After the Hollow Existence EP they signed to UNFD, which released Discoveries in November 2011; it reached No. 1 on the ARIA Hitseekers chart.

Singularity (2013), produced by Will Putney in New York, debuted at No. 3 on the ARIA Albums Chart and was nominated for the triple j J Award. Fitipaldes left for health reasons in 2014 and Marcus Bridge took over with the single 'Rot'. Node (2015) reached No. 1 and won the ARIA Award for Best Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Album. Mesmer was released without warning on 24 March 2017, debuted at No. 3 and won the same ARIA Award, a feat repeated in 2019 by Alien.

Alien drew on Bridge's violent upbringing and moved the band towards industrial and electronic sounds. In 2019 they covered The Vines' 'Get Free' for triple j's Like a Version, and in 2020 they released the documentary Negative Energy. After bassist Brendon Padjasek left in 2021, the band continued as a four-piece with Deiley also handling bass. Obsidian came out on 22 April 2022 and gave them a second No. 1 album.

Since then Northlane have worked independently. The Mirror's Edge EP (2024) featured Parkway Drive's Winston McCall on 'Miasma' and Karnivool's Ian Kenny on 'Afterimage', and Node: Reloaded marked that album's tenth anniversary in 2025. Their seventh album, Anemoia, was announced on 4 August 2026 for release on 30 October 2026, with the singles 'Evian', 'Cut_it' and 'Crucified'.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: the Anemoia tour comes before 2027

Fans waiting for a 2027 tour should note that Northlane's next home run is already on the calendar for November 2026. It opens in Perth on Thursday 5 November, a week after Anemoia is released, and finishes at Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on Saturday 14 November, with Festival Hall, Thebarton Theatre, the Enmore Theatre and Bar on the Hill in between.

That makes a second national tour early in 2027 less likely than usual, since the band has announced North American dates from 12 February 2027. Any Australian or New Zealand date for 2027 would be a new announcement, and none has been made as of 9 October 2026.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: Sydney, the home crowd

Northlane's Sydney shows carry extra weight because the band comes from Blacktown. The Roundhouse show of October 2019 became the Live at the Roundhouse album, and the Enmore Theatre was the Sydney stop on the Dante Tour on 10 February 2024 and is again on 11 November 2026.

The archive also lists smaller Sydney rooms on the regional tours, such as Crowbar, Manly Leagues Club and the Miranda Hotel, along with the Evan Theatre in Penrith and Centennial Park for Knotfest in 2023.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: touring the regions

Few bands at Northlane's level tour regional Australia as often. The 2022 Regional Australian Tour ran to 17 shows, the 2025 winter tour covered towns from Gladstone and Toowoomba to Busselton and Castlemaine, and the 2026 regional tour took them to Rockhampton, Gosford, Torquay and Forth in Tasmania.

These shows usually take place in pubs, clubs and small halls such as the Racehorse Hotel in Ipswich, the Seabreeze Hotel in Mackay, Tilly's in Wagga Wagga and the Wool Exchange in Geelong, which gives a very different experience from the theatre and arena dates.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: Auckland and New Zealand

Northlane have played New Zealand regularly since 2012, mostly in Auckland. The archive lists Zeal West, the Kings Arms, Galatos and Studio The Venue there, along with San Fran in Wellington, Void in Hamilton and Butlers Reef in New Plymouth.

The Powerstation on 22 November 2026 will be their next Auckland show. No New Zealand date is announced for 2027.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027: what to expect live

A Northlane headline set runs to about 14 to 16 songs. On the Dante Tour at the Enmore Theatre on 10 February 2024 they opened with 'Carbonized', 'Intuition', 'Miasma' and '4D', played 'Talking Heads', 'Citizen', 'Bloodline', 'Dante', 'Echo Chamber' and 'Clarity', ran 'Worldeater', 'Dispossession' and 'Jinn' together as a medley, and finished with 'Solar', 'Afterimage', 'Clockwork' and 'Nova'.

The 2026 regional shows used a similar structure: at Stay Gold in Melbourne on 12 April 2026 the set started with 'Carbonized' and 'Intuition', included 'Kraft' and 'Welcome to the Industry', and closed with 'Afterimage' and 'Clockwork'. Festival sets, such as Good Things in December 2024, are cut to about ten songs.

Across the Australian and New Zealand shows in the archive, the most played songs are 'Bloodline', 'Talking Heads', '4D', 'Clockwork', 'Carbonized', 'Echo Chamber' and 'Clarity'. New songs from Anemoia are expected to enter the set on the November 2026 tour, but no set list from that tour exists yet.

Northlane Australia Tour 2027 tickets and presales

There are no tickets for a 2027 Northlane tour of Australia or New Zealand, because none has been announced as of 9 October 2026. Any site selling 2027 seats or offering a 2027 'presale code' is not official. Tickets for the November 2026 Anemoia tour went on general sale on 12 August 2026 through the tour promoter and the venues' official outlets.

Whenever new dates are announced, buy from the official seller named in the announcement or from the venue box office, keep mobile tickets in the purchaser's name, and be careful with sellers on social media. Many of the band's regional shows are in small pubs and clubs that sell out quickly.
