San Cisco Australia Tour 2027

San Cisco have not announced an Australian or New Zealand tour for 2027. As of 9 October 2026 there are no headline dates, no festival slots and no ticket sales listed for the Fremantle band next year, so anything presented as a 2027 San Cisco tour or presale should be treated with caution until the band confirms it.

That absence is not a sign that the band has gone quiet at home. San Cisco are one of the most consistently touring Australian indie pop acts of the past fifteen years. The setlist archive alone logs around sixty Australian shows between March 2023 and May 2026, from winery stages in Denmark, Western Australia, to pubs in Mackay, Rockhampton, Gladstone and Ulladulla, the Forum Theatre in Melbourne and the Tivoli in Brisbane. Their most recent show in the archive is at the Mona Vale Hotel in Sydney on Friday 15 May 2026.

This page sets out what is and is not known about San Cisco's 2027 plans, then gives a detailed account of their concerts and festival appearances across Australia, a summary of their albums and chart history, and practical advice for anyone who wants to be ready the moment new dates appear.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: what is announced so far

There is no official 2027 San Cisco tour of Australia or New Zealand. The band's fifth studio album, Under the Light, came out on 1 March 2024 and was toured extensively across 2024, with a headline run that took in Melbourne's Forum Theatre on 26 October 2024, the Tivoli in Brisbane on 14 November and the Manning Bar at the University of Sydney on 15 November. Since then the archive shows a mix of festival and one-off shows through 2025 and into 2026, rather than a new album cycle.

No sixth album, single campaign or tour poster has been announced as of 9 October 2026. Historically, San Cisco have announced national runs a few months ahead, usually alongside new music, and their tours have reached far beyond the capital cities. The 2024 schedule, for example, went from Cairns and Townsville down the Queensland coast, through regional New South Wales and Victoria and over to Tasmania. If a 2027 run follows that pattern, regional dates would be part of it, but nothing of the sort has been confirmed.

New Zealand has not appeared in the setlist archive's recent San Cisco data, which covers Australian shows from 2023 to 2026. There is no announced New Zealand date for 2027 either. Until the band publishes dates, any list of 2027 cities, any 'leaked' venue list and any 'presale code' sold online should be ignored.

The most reliable way to hear about a new tour is the band's own channels and the alert on this page: when San Cisco confirm dates in Australia or New Zealand, the page will be updated with cities, venues and sale times.

Before the San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: Australia/NZ concert history

San Cisco grew up on Western Australian stages. The members met at school in Fremantle, and Scarlett Stevens had been playing drums with the rock trio the Flairz since December 2003, when she was eleven. After forming in late 2009, first as King George, the band recorded the Golden Revolver EP in Perth in 2010, and its title track was picked up by Triple J. By 2011 they were supporting established Australian acts such as the Grates, Jebediah and Architecture in Helsinki, and playing a long list of festivals across the country.

The band's national profile grew quickly after 'Awkward' reached number 7 in the Triple J Hottest 100 of 2011, and the debut album San Cisco followed in 2012. Their breakthrough Australian headline years are not detailed in the setlist data used here, which begins in 2023, but Wikipedia records that The Water was promoted with one of their biggest Australian tours yet: 21 shows in 46 days from 18 May 2017.

The archive's record of the Under the Light era starts in March 2023 with two shows at Castelli Winery in Denmark, Western Australia, on 4 and 5 March, followed by Foreshore Park in Newcastle on 11 March, Albert Park in Melbourne on 31 March, Tomich Wines near Adelaide on 2 April, Mindil Beach in Darwin on 20 May and Harrup Park in Mackay on 24 June. In November 2023 came a short headline run: the Kingscliff Beach Hotel on 2 November, the Princess Theatre in Brisbane on 3 November, the Metro Theatre in Sydney on 4 November, Drifter's Wharf in Gosford, the Hindley Street Music Hall in Adelaide, the Northcote Theatre in Melbourne on 11 November and the Torquay Hotel on 12 November.

2024 was the band's busiest year in the data. After Quercus Park in Carrick, Tasmania, on 8 February and an in-store set at Oh! Jean Records in Melbourne on 2 March, the day after Under the Light was released, San Cisco set off on a long regional run. In May they played Gilligan's in Cairns, the Dalrymple Hotel in Townsville, Magnums in Airlie Beach, Mackay, Rockhampton, Gladstone, the Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Newcastle, Wollongong and Ulladulla. In July and August they continued through Jindabyne, Albury, Canberra, Narooma, the Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Coffs Harbour, Elizabeth Beach, San Remo, Traralgon, Torquay, Ballarat, Launceston, Hobart and Forth.

The city leg of the Under the Light Tour followed in late 2024: the Hindley Street Music Hall in Adelaide on 25 October, the Forum Theatre in Melbourne on Saturday 26 October, Shelter Brewing Co. in Busselton on 8 November, two homecoming nights at the Fremantle Arts Centre on 9 and 10 November, the Tivoli in Brisbane on 14 November and the Manning Bar in Sydney on 15 November. A show at the Station in Newcastle on 21 December closed the year.

Since then the band has played a lighter schedule of one-off and festival dates: the Agriplex in Burnie on 4 January 2025, Flagstaff Hill in Wollongong on 2 March, Midland in Western Australia on 29 March, Armidale Showground on 17 May, two nights on the Amphi-Grande stage at Woodford on 27 and 28 December 2025 and Redbanks at Nugent in Tasmania on 30 December 2025. In 2026 the archive shows the Regatta Grounds in Hobart on 14 March and the Mona Vale Hotel in Sydney on 15 May.

The table below lists 60 documented Australia/NZ concerts by San Cisco between 2023 and 2026, with the most shows in Melbourne (4), Adelaide (4), Sydney (3), Newcastle (3), Hobart (2), Woodford (2). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027 and Australia/NZ festivals

Festivals have been part of San Cisco's story from the start. In 2011 alone, Wikipedia lists Adelaide's Fuse Festival, BIGSOUND in Brisbane, the Melbourne leg of St Jerome's Laneway Festival, the Pyramid Rock Festival on Phillip Island, Peats Ridge Festival in the Glenworth Valley, and the Western Australian stops of the Big Day Out and Groovin the Moo. In 2017 they played Splendour in the Grass while touring The Water.

The more recent setlist data adds a run of outdoor and holiday-season dates: winery and park shows in 2023, Flagstaff Hill in Wollongong and Armidale Showground in 2025, and the Amphi-Grande stage at Woodford across two nights just after Christmas 2025, followed by Redbanks in Tasmania on 30 December. No San Cisco festival appearance in Australia or New Zealand has been announced for 2027.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: career and records

San Cisco formed in Fremantle in 2009. The current line-up is Jordi Davieson on lead vocals and guitar, Josh Biondillo on guitar and vocals and Scarlett Stevens on drums and vocals, with Davieson and Biondillo sharing keyboards. Bass player Nick Gardner was a member from 2009 to 2018, and Jennifer Aslett played bass from 2018 to 2019. On tour the band has been joined by Mitchell J Benson on bass since 2019 and James Ireland on keyboards since 2020.

After the Golden Revolver EP (2010), which included a cover of Tame Impala's 'Solitude Is Bliss', the band signed with Albert Productions in late 2011. 'Awkward', a duet between Davieson and Stevens, became their first charting single and came in at number 7 in the Triple J Hottest 100 of 2011. The self-titled debut album followed in 2012, reaching number 17 in Australia; 'Wild Things' and 'Fred Astaire' both made the Hottest 100 of 2012, and the band received ARIA nominations in 2013, including Best Video for 'Fred Astaire'.

Gracetown, named after a small coastal town in Western Australia, was released on 6 March 2015 and peaked at number 2, the band's highest album chart position. The Water (2017), led by 'Slo-Mo' and 'Hey, Did I Do You Wrong?', reached number 17. After the Flaws EP in March 2020, Between You and Me was released on 4 September 2020 and peaked at number 3.

Under the Light, the fifth album, arrived on 1 March 2024 after a string of singles that began with 'Lost Without You' in February 2023 and included 'High' in October 2023. The band has won seven West Australian Music Industry Awards in 2012 alone and has been nominated six times at the ARIA Music Awards. Stevens has also sung on records by Bob Evans and Illy.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: the regional towns

Few Australian bands of San Cisco's size spend as much time outside the capital cities. The 2024 schedule in the setlist archive reads like a road map of the east coast: Cairns, Townsville, Airlie Beach, Mackay, Rockhampton and Gladstone in a single week in May, then Ipswich, the Sunshine Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong and Ulladulla. In July they went to the snow at Jindabyne, then Albury, Canberra and Narooma.

August took them to the Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Coffs Harbour and Elizabeth Beach, then into regional Victoria at San Remo, Traralgon, Torquay and Ballarat, before three Tasmanian shows in Launceston, Hobart and Forth. Many of these were pub and club rooms, the kind of venue that rarely sees a band with two top-three albums.

For fans outside Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, that history matters: if and when San Cisco announce a 2027 tour, it is reasonable to watch for regional dates, but no 2027 town or venue has been confirmed.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: Fremantle and Western Australia

San Cisco are a Fremantle band in every sense. Three of the four founding members went to Christian Brothers College in Fremantle, Stevens went to nearby Iona Presentation College, and the first EP was recorded at Blackbird Studios in Perth with Little Birdy's Matt Chequer co-producing. The video for 'Golden Revolver' was shot on the Margaret River, and the second album took its name from Gracetown.

The home-state shows in the archive reflect that bond: two nights at Castelli Winery in Denmark in March 2023, Shelter Brewing Co. in Busselton and two nights at the Fremantle Arts Centre in November 2024, and Midland in March 2025. The Fremantle Arts Centre shows on 9 and 10 November 2024 were the Western Australian peak of the Under the Light Tour.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: the Melbourne and Sydney nights

In Melbourne, the archive shows the Northcote Theatre on 11 November 2023 and the Forum Theatre on 26 October 2024, where the band played a 20-song set on the Under the Light Tour, the longest in the data. An in-store set at Oh! Jean Records on 2 March 2024 marked the album's release weekend.

Sydney has seen the band at the Metro Theatre on 4 November 2023, the Manning Bar at the University of Sydney on 15 November 2024 and, most recently, the Mona Vale Hotel on the Northern Beaches on 15 May 2026, the last San Cisco show in the archive as of 9 October 2026.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: New Zealand

The setlist data available for this page covers Australian shows only, and no San Cisco date in New Zealand is announced for 2027. The band has toured overseas, including the United States, Mexico and the CMJ Festival in New York in 2013, but recent years have been focused on Australia.

If New Zealand dates are added to a future tour, this page will list them with venues and sale times as soon as they are confirmed.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027: what to expect live

A San Cisco headline set in the archive usually runs to 16 to 20 songs. Across the recorded setlists, five songs appear in every one of the 18 full shows: 'Awkward', 'Fred Astaire', 'Skin', 'Reasons' and 'Too Much Time Together'. 'Lost Without You', the first single from Under the Light, is close behind, followed by 'About You', 'Honeycomb', 'On the Line', 'Summer Days', 'When I Dream' and the title track 'Under the Light'.

The Sydney set at the Mona Vale Hotel on 15 May 2026 shows the current shape of the show: it opened with 'Summer Days' and 'Lost Without You', brought 'Awkward' early, moved through 'Honeycomb', 'Family Trust', 'Flaws' and 'Fred Astaire', and ended with 'Reasons', 'Run' and 'Too Much Time Together'. Older favourites such as 'Run' and 'Fred Astaire' sit alongside the newer material, so the set spans the catalogue from the debut album to Under the Light.

Festival sets are shorter, typically 10 to 13 songs, as at Albert Park in Melbourne in March 2023, Tomich Wines in April 2023 and Flagstaff Hill in Wollongong in March 2025.

San Cisco Australia Tour 2027 tickets and presales

As of 9 October 2026 there are no San Cisco tickets on sale for any 2027 show in Australia or New Zealand, and no presale has been announced. Any site offering 2027 San Cisco tickets, or a 'presale code' for sale, is not selling an official product.

When a tour is announced, buy through the official outlet named in the announcement or from the venue's own box office. San Cisco often play pubs, clubs and regional halls where the venue sells tickets directly, so check the venue's listing first. Mobile tickets for many Australian shows are name-locked and only transferable through the official platform, so buy through the official outlet or its official resale service to make sure the ticket is in your name.

Sign up below for the alert and you will be told as soon as San Cisco confirm 2027 dates, presale details or a general on-sale time in Australia or New Zealand.
