It’s more than three decades since Kylie – the golden girl of Australia – made her first foray into the global music scene, releasing the ridiculously fun anthem that is ‘The Loco Motion’. Since then, she’s gone on to become a household name around the world, and her sparkle hasn’t dimmed in the slightest – with songs like ‘Can’t Get You Out of My Head’, ‘All The Lovers’ and ‘Padam Padam’ (released in 2001, 2010 and 2023 respectively) consistently reinstating her position as one of the world’s true pop stars. And though she’s famous across the world, Kylie holds a special place in Aussie culture. To quote Jacob Elordi, the pop princess is “a national treasure. Period.”, so it feels right that she’s kicking off her world tour – her biggest since 2011 – here on home soil.

After lighting the fuse for the Tension Tour in Perth on Saturday, February 15, Kylie will bring her pop angel energy to Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane before gracing the Harbour City with her presence. She’ll be rounding out the Aussie leg of her tour at the Qudos Bank Arena, with two gloriously glittery shows on Saturday, March 1 and Sunday, March 2.
