Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027

Peking Duk have not announced any concerts in Australia or New Zealand for 2027. As of 9 October 2026 the Canberra duo are in the middle of a home tour for their debut album Paradise, but no date beyond 2026 has been published, so this page explains what is and is not known and records their long history of shows on both sides of the Tasman.

Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles formed Peking Duk in Canberra in 2010 and became one of the most dependable live acts in Australian dance music. 'High', with Nicole Millar, reached No. 5 on the ARIA singles chart in 2014 and won the ARIA Award for Best Dance Release; 'Take Me Over' with Safia and 'Stranger' with Elliphant followed it into the top ten.

Few acts of their profile tour Australia as widely. The setlist archive has more than 120 shows in Australia and New Zealand since December 2015, from Rhythm & Vines in Gisborne and the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney to pubs in Forth, Airlie Beach, Mildura, Dubbo and Mount Gambier.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: what is announced so far

There is no Peking Duk tour of Australia or New Zealand announced for 2027. What is happening now is the Paradise Album Tour, the run behind their first studio album, which was released on 14 August 2026 and reached No. 6 on the ARIA albums chart.

The tour reached North Queensland at the start of October 2026: the archive lists McGuire's Hotel in Mackay on Friday 2 October, the Uni Bar in Townsville on 3 October and Gilligan's in Cairns on 4 October. Event listings show further dates through October and into November 2026, including Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Coffs Harbour, Canberra and Sydney. These are 2026 shows, not 2027 ones.

Nothing has been said about what follows the album tour, whether more Australian dates, a New Zealand leg or summer festival bookings for 2027. Peking Duk have often added regional dates and festival slots at short notice, but until a 2027 show is officially announced, treat any list of 2027 dates or any 'presale code' with caution.

Before the Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: Australia/NZ concert history

The setlist archive's first Peking Duk entries are in New Zealand: Waiohika Estate in Gisborne on 29 December 2015, home of Rhythm & Vines, and the ASB Arena in Mount Maunganui on New Year's Eve 2016 and 2 January 2017. That suits a duo whose career has been built around summer events. Wikipedia also records a Melbourne show on 2 December 2015, remembered for a fan who talked his way backstage by editing the band's Wikipedia page.

In New Zealand the archive goes on to list Western Springs Stadium in Auckland in March 2018, Trafalgar Park in Nelson in January 2019 and January 2021, the Auckland Town Hall on 21 February 2020 and Hagley Park in Christchurch the next day, Trustpower Stadium in Mount Maunganui in January 2021, and Shed 6 in Wellington and Spark Arena in Auckland in May 2021.

Back in Australia, 2022 brought Cornelian Bay Park in Hobart in March, Albert Park in Melbourne in April, regional showgrounds in Maitland, Canberra and Bendigo, Mindil Beach in Darwin, a series of winery dates in McLaren Vale, Pokolbin and Mount Cotton in October, the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on 24 November and the Bridge Hotel in Forth, Tasmania, in December.

March 2023 was one of their busiest months at home: 20 shows in about three weeks, from Beer Deluxe in Albury and the University of Canberra Refectory to the Forum Theatre in Melbourne on 11 March, the Enmore Theatre in Sydney on 17 March, Gilligan's in Cairns, Magnums Hotel at Airlie Beach, The Tivoli in Brisbane, Hindley Street Music Hall in Adelaide and the Metro City Concert Club in Perth on 1 April 2023.

The pattern continued in 2024 and 2025 with long runs through regional pubs and clubs: the Hoey Moey in Coffs Harbour, the King Street Hotel in Newcastle, the Roebuck Bay Hotel in Broome, Monsoons in Darwin, The Setts in Mildura, Settlers Tavern in Margaret River, the Pastoral Hotel in Dubbo, the Great Western Hotel in Rockhampton and Jens Town Hall Hotel in Mount Gambier. In Auckland they played the Sweat Shop Brew Kitchen in August 2024 and St Matthew-in-the-City in October 2025.

In 2026 the archive has Exhibition Park in Canberra in January, Quercus Park in Carrick in February, Hagley Park in Christchurch on 28 February and the Auckland Domain on 21 March, the Hordern Pavilion on 15 May, Mindil Beach in Darwin on 16 May and Melbourne Park in September, before the Paradise Album Tour dates of late September and October.

The table below lists 120 documented Australia/NZ concerts by Peking Duk between 2015 and 2026, with the most shows in Melbourne (8), Sydney (7), Auckland (7), Townsville (4), Christchurch (4), Byron Bay (4). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: career and records

Peking Duk are Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles, DJs and producers from Canberra. Styles had played bass in the local indie band Rubycon from 2007 to 2010. Their debut single 'Bingo Trippin'' came out in May 2011, and a bootleg remix of Passion Pit's 'Take a Walk' in 2012 brought them attention on music blogs. In 2013 they released 'The Way You Are' and 'Feels Like', placed fourth in the InTheMix Top 50 and had a run as triple j Mix Up residents.

'High', featuring Nicole Millar, was their first ARIA top 40 hit in February 2014, peaked at No. 5 and won the 2014 ARIA Award for Best Dance Release. Later that year they signed a worldwide deal with Sony Music and RCA. 'Take Me Over' with Safia reached No. 6 in 2015, and 'Stranger' with Elliphant reached No. 5 in 2016. The EP Reprisal (2018) reached No. 12.

In March 2019 the duo played what was then their biggest national tour, with Kwame and Kira Puru in support. In 2020 they made 'Stay the F*ck Home' with Ben O'Connor for triple j's lockdown Quarantune challenge, and in March 2023 they joined Julia Stone and Dean Brady for a Like a Version of Crowded House's 'Fall at Your Feet', which reached No. 64 in the Hottest 100 of 2023.

Paradise, their first studio album, was announced in March 2026 and preceded by 'Thrills', 'Forever', 'Do Your Best', 'Let Go' and 'Can't Fit In'. It was released on 14 August 2026 and reached No. 6 on the ARIA albums chart, more than fifteen years after the duo started.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: the Paradise Album Tour and what comes next

The Paradise Album Tour is a classic Peking Duk run: it began in regional North Queensland, at McGuire's Hotel in Mackay, the Uni Bar in Townsville and Gilligan's in Cairns, before heading south. It follows the release of Paradise in August 2026.

No 2027 dates have been added. In past years the duo have often moved from a club tour straight into the summer festival season in Australia and New Zealand, but nothing for the 2026-27 summer or for 2027 itself has been confirmed on this page's data.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: touring the regions

Peking Duk may have played more regional towns than any other Australian dance act of their size. Between 2023 and 2025 the archive lists Albury, Torquay, Warrnambool, Gosford, Townsville, Cairns, Airlie Beach, Noosa, Port Stephens, Broome, Caloundra, Barwon Heads, Mildura, Busselton, Margaret River, Mackay, Armidale, Bundaberg, Toowoomba, Dubbo, Bathurst, Rockhampton, Yamba, Port Macquarie and Mount Gambier.

Many of those rooms are pubs and taverns, such as the Bridge Hotel in Forth, the Torquay Hotel, Magnums at Airlie Beach and the Hoey Moey in Coffs Harbour, several of which they have played more than once. For fans outside the capitals, a Peking Duk show has often been just down the road.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: Canberra, the home town

The duo started out in Canberra, and the city keeps coming back in their touring. The archive has Exhibition Park in Canberra in April 2022 and January 2026, and the University of Canberra Refectory in March 2023, and event listings include the same Refectory on the 2026 album tour.

Wikipedia's list of their festival appearances also includes Spilt Milk, which began in Canberra.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: New Zealand summers

Across the Tasman, Peking Duk are mostly a summer act. They have played Waiohika Estate in Gisborne at New Year in 2015, 2023 and 2024, the ASB Arena and Trustpower Stadium in Mount Maunganui, Trafalgar Park in Nelson, Hagley Park in Christchurch in 2020, 2023, 2025 and 2026, and Robrosa Station at Cardrona.

Their indoor headline shows in New Zealand are fewer: the Auckland Town Hall in February 2020, Shed 6 in Wellington and Spark Arena in Auckland in May 2021, and smaller Auckland rooms in 2024 and 2025. The Auckland Domain on 21 March 2026 is their latest New Zealand date in the archive.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027: what to expect live

A Peking Duk show mixes their own hits with live instruments, mash-ups and singalong covers. At the Auckland Town Hall on 21 February 2020 the 19-song set ran from 'Stranger' and 'The Way You Are' through 'Take Me Over', 'Fake Magic', 'Say My Name' and 'Fire' to 'Wasted' and 'High', with covers of 'Seven Nation Army', 'Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)' and 'Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)'.

The March 2023 theatre shows were tighter. At the Forum Theatre in Melbourne on 11 March the set opened with 'High' and included 'Take Me Over', 'Fake Magic', 'Stranger', 'Wasted', 'Fire', 'Spend It', 'Let You Down' and 'Nothing to Love About Love'; at the Enmore Theatre on 17 March they closed with 'High'.

Across the archive's Australian and New Zealand set lists, 'Fire', 'Stranger', 'High', 'Take Me Over', 'Fake Magic' and 'Say My Name' are the songs heard most often. The Paradise Album Tour is billed with a new production and new songs from the album.

Peking Duk Australia Tour 2027 tickets and presales

No Peking Duk tickets for 2027 are on sale in Australia or New Zealand, because no 2027 shows have been announced. Tickets for the remaining Paradise Album Tour dates in 2026 are sold through the outlets named by each venue.

For any future announcement, buy only from the official ticket agent named in the announcement or from the venue or festival itself. Many shows now use mobile tickets linked to the buyer's name, so resale is safest through the official resale option. Be wary of anyone selling a 'presale code'.
