Due to unprecedented demand for tickets to their Big Five-O Australian tour, Cold Chisel have added another six dates to the epic run.

New dates have been added for Brisbane, Melbourne, and Sydney, where the band sold out tickets to their shows within minutes last week, as well as shows in the Hunter Valley and Canberra. With the additional dates, Cold Chisel will now celebrate their 50th anniversary with a whopping 23 shows across the country.

The new concerts take place on Wednesday, 30 October (Brisbane Entertainment Centre), Friday, 22 and Saturday, 23 November (Sidney Myer Music Bowl), Thursday, 28 November (Patrick White Lawns, Canberra), Saturday, 30 November (Roche Estate, Hunter Valley), and Wednesday, 4 December (Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney).

Pre-sale tickets will be sold exclusively to members of the Cold Chisel, Face To Face Touring and ticketing companies mailing lists from Monday, 17 June, at 1 pm AEST. Final tickets will be released to the general public on Tuesday, 18 June, at 1 pm AEST via the Cold Chisel website. You can sign up to the band’s mailing list here.

“We were completely blown away by the response last week,” vocalist Jimmy Barnes commented in a press release. “The demand for tickets was bigger than anything we’ve ever seen before.”

Guitarist Ian Moss added, “Unfortunately, we can’t do gigs everywhere, so we’ve tried to get to the places where the outcry was loudest. That’s why we’ve added new shows in Canberra and the Hunter Valley, as well as additional gigs in Brisbane and Sydney, plus two more in Melbourne. The reaction of our fans has really fired us up - we can’t wait to play for everyone.”
