It's the news Lewis Capaldi fans have been waiting a loooong time for: the chart-topping Scottish singer and master of tear-jerking ballads has just announced he's heading Down Under, with a massive show scheduled for Melbourne.
Incredibly, it’s been five years since the Capaldi last graced Aussie stages at Falls Festival, and two years since he heartbreakingly had to cancel his 2023 Australian tour due to the impact of his Tourette’s. But after an emotional surprise return at Glastonbury Festival over the weekend, the superstar has announced his long-awaited Aussie comeback.
Brace your heartstrings, as the setlist is bound to hit you right in the feels with favourites like ‘Before You Go’, ‘Hold Me While You Wait’, ‘Bruises’, ‘Forget Me’, his latest release ‘Survive’ and, of course, the global smash hit, ‘Someone You Loved’ – which is the world’s fourth most streamed song in history.

Why did Lewis Capaldi cancel his 2023 Australian tour?
Lewis Capaldi cancelled his 2023 Australian tour – including his scheduled appearance at Splendour in the Grass and a series of sold-out headline shows – to focus on his mental and physical health.
“The fact that this probably won’t come as a surprise doesn’t make it any easier to write, but I’m very sorry to let you know I’m going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future,” said the singer. “I used to be able to enjoy every second of shows like this and I’d hoped three weeks away would sort me out. But the truth is I’m still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come.”
