Foo Fighters Hint At 2026 Australian Tour Dates

Foo Fighters and tour promoters Frontier Touring are sending fans into a frenzy.

Foo Fighters may have just played a one-off show in Tasmania, but that doesn’t mean that they’re done with playing shows in Australia in 2026.

The American rockers are currently teasing new music, with a newly posted short video on social media showing the band members in the studio and flashes of the words “HERE WE GO AGAIN” appearing on the screen.

New music is enough to excite any Foo Fighters devotee, but when said teaser is shared by tour promoters Frontier Touring, things suddenly become even more thrilling.

Frontier Touring didn’t just share the video to their social media accounts – with the horns up emoji – but they also posted a link in the comments to sign up for information about a 2026 Foo Fighters tour. It’s happening, and it’s only a matter of when we’ll find out more.

This isn’t the first clue we’ve received about more shows from the band in Australia this year. During their Tasmanian performance, frontman Dave Grohl hinted at plans to return “sooner than you think.”

“This won’t be the last time you see us,” Grohl told fans mid-set at UTAS Stadium. “We’ll be back here sooner than you think… and it’s before my next birthday.”

Grohl’s birthday is 14 January, so the rocker suggested that the band could return to Australia before the end of the year, or perhaps in early January 2027.

After the Launceston show, Foo Fighters posted a teaser on social media that indicated more shows were on the way and shared a sign-up link for updates.

“EPIC NIGHT TASMANIA!!! See you again soon???” the band wrote, also posting an Australian flag emoji and a sign-up link.

In addition to teasing more shows, Grohl informed fans that Foo Fighters had completed work on their twelfth album, the follow-up to 2023’s But Here We Are and the first to feature new drummer Ilan Rubin.

“We might have a whole new record of fucking songs that we just finished the other day,” he shared.

Last month, Foo Fighters exclusively performed at UTAS Stadium in Launceston, drawing over 25,000 punters from across Tasmania – and some fans from the mainland or overseas.

Stadiums Tasmania CEO James Avery said the show had become “the state’s biggest concert event.”

“The first ever Foo Fighters concert in Launceston was a success by any measure, paving the way for future events,” Avery declared. “We wanted to make it an unforgettable experience, and I think we achieved this.”

“This is the type of event Stadiums Tasmania is seeking to deliver regularly as we look to elevate the stadium experience right across the state.”
