Gang Of Youths will play an exclusive, one-off show in Thirroul next week – an intimate warm-up gig ahead of their monumental two sold-out shows at the Sydney Opera House.

The one-night-only show will take place at Anita’s Theatre in Thirroul next Thursday, 6 August. Fans will have the opportunity to witness one of Australia’s most celebrated acts, up close and personal, ahead of the Sydney Opera House shows on Saturday, 8 and Sunday, 9 August.

The Anita’s Theatre gig marks Gang Of Youths’ first performance in Australia in four years, and like their previously announced shows at one of the country’s most iconic venues, will be met with huge demand.

Frontier Members can access pre-sale tickets on Wednesday, 29 July, at 11 am AEST, followed by the general sale on Thursday, 30 July, at 12 pm AEST. You can find more ticketing information on the Frontier Touring website.

Led by singer-songwriter David Le’aupepe alongside Donnie Borzestowski, Jung Kim and Tom Hobden, Gang Of Youths are recognised for some of the most emotionally resonant, enjoyable music to come out of Australia in the 2010s. From Magnolia to What Can I Do If The Fire Goes Out? to the angel of 8th ave, fans know and love the hits.

According to a press release about the Sydney Opera House shows, the evenings will entail “new material alongside soaring favourites” from Gang Of Youths’ beloved catalogue. The band’s most recent album, angel in realtime, arrived in 2022.

On their highly anticipated return to the stage, David Le’aupepe said, “There’s no place like home! We’re incredibly excited to be back, playing in Sydney, to finally play some new music in one of the most special venues in the world.”
