It’s time to dust off those air guitars and warm up your vocal cords (just say “Foo Fighters” five times fast), because one of the most legendary rock bands is returning Down Under in summer 2026/27. In January, the Foo Fighters performed a one-off concert in Launceston, marking their first-ever show in the quiet Tassie city. 

Now, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers – Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear, Rami Jaffee and Ilan Rubin – have announced a massive national tour, hitting seven Aussie cities across November 2026 and January 2027. Here's everything you need to know about getting tickets to the Foo Fighters in Australia.

When are the Foo Fighters coming to Australia?

The Foo Fighters have announced seven stops on their Australian tour, including:

  • Brisbane: Suncorp Stadium – Thursday, November 5
  • Townsville: Queensland Country Bank Stadium – Saturday, November 7

  • Newcastle: McDonalds Jones Stadium – Thursday, November 12
  • Melbourne: Marvel Stadium – Saturday, November 14
  • Adelaide: Coopers Stadium – Thursday, November 17
