Tones and I Australia Tour 2027

Tones and I has not announced a 2027 tour of Australia or New Zealand. As of 9 October 2026 there are no confirmed dates, venues or ticket sales for next year, in either country or anywhere else. The singer from Mount Martha on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula has not announced a new album since Beautifully Ordinary, released on 2 August 2024.

That does not mean she has been off the road. Few Australian artists of her profile play at home as often. After the Beautifully Ordinary arena and theatre dates of 2024, including Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on 9 November 2024, she kept touring regional Australia through 2025 and into 2026, with the setlist archive's most recent entry at Oakes Oval in Lismore on 9 May 2026.

Toni Watson's story is also one of the great Australian live-music stories: a busker on the streets of Byron Bay in 2018 who, a year later, opened Splendour in the Grass, played the AFL Grand Final and had a song, 'Dance Monkey', that spent 24 weeks at No. 1 in Australia. This page explains what is and is not known about 2027 and goes through her concerts in Australia and New Zealand since 2020.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: what is announced so far

There is no official information about Tones and I concerts in 2027. No tour name, city list, presale or on-sale date has been published, and no support slot on another artist's 2027 tour has been announced either. Any list of 2027 dates or 'presale code' circulating online should be treated with suspicion until it comes from an official source.

Her recent pattern helps explain why fans keep asking. She toured nationally in 2021 for Welcome to the Madhouse, supported Pink on the Australian leg of the Summer Carnival stadium tour in February and March 2024, and then headlined the Beautifully Ordinary Tour from August 2024. Between those big runs she has repeatedly played smaller regional shows, so new Australian dates can appear at fairly short notice.

New Zealand has seen her less often. The archive has two shows in January 2020 as part of The Kids Are Coming Tour, Sky Stadium in Wellington in October 2022, the Summer Carnival nights at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin and Eden Park in Auckland in March 2024, and a headline show at the Auckland Town Hall on 28 August 2024. Nothing is announced there for 2027.

We will update this page as soon as anything is confirmed. Sign up below for the alert and you will be told when Tones and I announces Australian or New Zealand dates.

Before the Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: Australia/NZ concert history

Tones and I's first big touring year was cut short. Her Kids Are Coming World Tour began on 1 February 2020 with five Laneway Festival dates in Australia, but the COVID-19 pandemic forced her local headline dates to be rescheduled. In New Zealand the archive has her at Trustpower Stadium in Mount Maunganui on 2 January 2020 and Trafalgar Park in Nelson on 4 January 2020, both listed under The Kids Are Coming Tour. 'Fly Away' was first played live on 24 November 2020 at the Newcastle Civic Theatre.

The rescheduled national tour finally ran in April and May 2021. It opened with two nights at the Palais Theatre in Melbourne on 23 and 24 April 2021, then visited the Regatta Grounds in Hobart, the Riverstage in Brisbane on 6 May, Munro Martin Parklands in Cairns, the Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide and the Enmore Theatre in Sydney on 17 and 18 May. Thomas Dalton Park in Wollongong had a show just before, on 17 April 2021.

In 2022 and 2023 she played some of the country's showpiece events. The archive has Rymill and King Rodney Parks in Adelaide in November 2022, the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on 24 November 2022 and a New Year's Eve set at Sydney's Northern Broadwalk on 31 December 2022. On 20 August 2023 she performed at the FIFA Women's World Cup closing ceremony at Stadium Australia (Accor Stadium), singing songs including 'I Made It', 'Fly Away', 'Dance Monkey' and 'The Greatest', which was used to support the Matildas.

In February and March 2024 she opened for Pink on the Summer Carnival stadium tour: Allianz Stadium in Sydney, McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle, Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane, Heritage Bank Stadium on the Gold Coast, Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Adelaide Oval, Optus Stadium in Perth, Accor Stadium in Sydney and two nights at Queensland Country Bank Stadium in Townsville on 22 and 23 March 2024. Her support set was around eleven songs, from 'Forever Young' to 'Dance Monkey' and 'Fly Away'.

The Beautifully Ordinary Tour followed the album in August 2024. It opened at the AEC Theatre in Adelaide on 17 August, then played the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney, the Newcastle Entertainment Centre, the Riverstage in Brisbane, two nights in Townsville and two at the Fremantle Arts Centre, and Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne on 7 September 2024. Later in the year came Rod Laver Arena on 9 November, the Forecourt in Sydney on 30 November, MyState Bank Arena in Hobart on 7 December, and regional shows in Dubbo, Tamworth, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour and Kiama.

The tour continued into 2025 with dates in Orange, Young, Melbourne and Byron Bay, and in April 2025 at The Princess Theatre in Brisbane. Her most recent shows in the archive are regional: Ballarat Civic Hall and Mackay in October 2025, then Ingham, Maryborough, Wollongong, Longwood and finally Oakes Oval in Lismore on 9 May 2026.

The table below lists 95 documented Australia/NZ concerts by Tones and I between 2020 and 2026, with the most shows in Melbourne (13), Sydney (10), Brisbane (6), Townsville (5), Adelaide (5), Gold Coast (3). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027 and Australia/NZ festivals

Festivals launched her live career. In May 2019 she played the Big Pineapple Music Festival and opened Splendour in the Grass 2019 as the winner of the Triple J Unearthed competition, setting a record for the biggest crowd at an opening set. In September 2019 she performed 'Dance Monkey' and 'The Kids Are Coming' at the AFL Grand Final in front of about 100,000 people.

In February 2020 her first headline tour opened with five Laneway Festival dates around Australia. She has since returned to the Big Pineapple site at Woombye (October 2024, on the Beautifully Ordinary Tour) and played outdoor events such as Werribee Racecourse in February 2023 and Albert Park in Melbourne in March 2025.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: career and records

Toni Watson grew up in Mount Martha on the Mornington Peninsula, learned keyboards and drum pads at secondary school and began busking in Melbourne while working in fashion retail. After being made redundant, she bought a loop station and took her one-woman act up the east coast. In 2017 she went to Byron Bay to busk, met her future manager Jackson Walkden-Brown, and spent 2018 living partly in a van, writing and busking full-time; she won the Battle of the Buskers at Buskers by the Creek that year.

In February 2019 she signed to Bad Batch Records/Sony Music Australia and uploaded 'Johnny Run Away' to Triple J Unearthed; it reached No. 12 on the ARIA chart. 'Dance Monkey', released on 10 May 2019 and written alone 'in not much more than 30 minutes', went to No. 1 in more than 30 countries. In Australia it spent 24 weeks at No. 1, beating the record held by Bing Crosby's 'White Christmas', and it was certified 19 times platinum by ARIA. In February 2024 she became the first female artist with a single song past 3 billion streams on Spotify.

She was the most awarded artist at the 2019 ARIA Music Awards, with four wins from eight nominations. The Kids Are Coming EP (August 2019) reached No. 3 in Australia, and her debut album, Welcome to the Madhouse (16 July 2021), debuted at No. 1 with the singles 'Fly Away', 'Won't Sleep' and 'Cloudy Day'. 'Cloudy Day' later won Song of the Year at the 2022 ARIA Awards, where she was also musical director of a tribute to Olivia Newton-John.

Her second album, Beautifully Ordinary, came out on 2 August 2024 after the singles 'Dreaming' and 'I Get High', and also reached No. 1 on the ARIA chart. In between, she released 'I Made It', used in the 2023 film True Spirit, and collaborated with Macklemore on 'Chant'.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: from Byron Bay busker to stadiums

Very few Australian acts have gone from street corner to stadium as quickly. In 2018 Tones and I was busking in Byron Bay; in July 2019 she opened Splendour in the Grass up the road at North Byron Parklands; in September 2019 she played the MCG on AFL Grand Final day; and in 2024 she was on stage before Pink at Marvel Stadium, Suncorp Stadium, Adelaide Oval and Optus Stadium.

Byron Bay still features on her itinerary: the archive has a Beautifully Ordinary show at Crossroads in Byron Bay on 17 April 2025, a 14-song set that ran from 'Raise Me Up' to 'Dance Monkey' and 'Fly Away'.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: the Melbourne and Mornington nights

As a Mornington Peninsula local, Melbourne is her home crowd. She has played the Palais Theatre twice (April 2021), the Sidney Myer Music Bowl (December 2021), Marvel Stadium four times with Pink in 2024, Margaret Court Arena in September 2024 and Rod Laver Arena on 9 November 2024, her biggest headline show in the archive, with a 22-song set.

Closer to home, the archive has her at Pt. Leo Estate in Merricks in November 2023, the Pier Bandroom in August 2024 and Hotel Sorrento in January 2025.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: touring the regions

Her national tours rarely stop at the capitals. In 2024 the Beautifully Ordinary Tour visited Townsville, Fremantle, Hobart, Dubbo, Tamworth, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour and Kiama, and in 2025 Orange and Young. Since then she has kept playing regional towns, from Mackay and Ballarat in 2025 to Ingham, Maryborough and Lismore in 2026.

That habit is one reason to keep an alert on: if she does tour Australia in 2027, it is likely to reach well beyond Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, although nothing has been announced.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: Auckland and New Zealand

New Zealand audiences have seen Tones and I in very different settings: summer stadium and park shows in Mount Maunganui and Nelson in January 2020, Sky Stadium in Wellington in October 2022, the Pink stadium nights in Dunedin and at Eden Park in March 2024, and her own headline show at the Auckland Town Hall on 28 August 2024 on the Beautifully Ordinary Tour.

There is no New Zealand date announced for 2027.

Tones and I Australia Tour 2027: what to expect live

A Tones and I headline show today runs to around 20 songs. On the Beautifully Ordinary Tour the set usually opened with 'Figure It Out' and 'Cloudy Day', moved through 'I Get High', 'Never Seen the Rain', 'Forever Young', 'Dreaming', 'Won't Sleep', 'Bad Child' and 'Ur So F**kInG cOoL', slowed down for 'Sorrento', 'Lonely' and 'I Am Free', and finished with 'Johnny Run Away', 'The Kids Are Coming', 'Dance With Me', 'Dance Monkey' and 'Fly Away'. A cover of 'Fix You' was a regular feature.

Her 2021 sets were shorter and looser, with covers such as 'Hey Ya!' and 'We Like to Party' among her own songs, while the 2024 Pink support set was a tight run of about eleven songs. Across all logged Australian and New Zealand shows, her most played songs are 'Dance Monkey', 'Never Seen the Rain', 'Fly Away', 'Forever Young' and 'Johnny Run Away'.

The longest set in the archive is Rod Laver Arena on 9 November 2024, at 22 songs, which added 'The Greatest', 'To Be Loved' and 'Raise Me Up' to the usual tour set. If she tours again in 2027, expect a similar mix of the two albums and the early hits, but no 2027 set list exists yet.
