Louis Tomlinson Announces 2026 Australian Tour

British pop star and One Direction member Louis Tomlinson is returning to Australia this October.

Last Down Under in January and February 2024, following his solo debut in Australia in July 2022, the singer-songwriter returns for an East Coast arena run presented by Untitled Group.

The tour commences at Melbourne’s John Cain Arena on Tuesday, 20 October. It continues at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Thursday, 22 October, and concludes at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Saturday, 24 October.

Pre-sale tickets will be available from Monday, 30 March, at 9 am local time before the general sale on Tuesday, 31 March, at 9 am local time. You can sign up for pre-sale access and find more ticketing information on the Untitled Group website.

Tomlinson is touring in support of his recently released third album, How Did I Get Here, which dropped in January. Upon its release, the album debuted at #1 in the UK and #3 in Australia.

Earlier this year, the singer teased his upcoming return to Australia during an interview on The Smallzy Show, describing a tour Down Under as “inevitable.”

“I always find the question funny because as long as I’ve been touring, I’ve always come to Aus. It’s inevitable,” Tomlinson said. “I love it there, I love it. So yeah, I’ll definitely, definitely be there. I think we’re just - it can’t be too long until we announce, to be honest.”

He added, “It’s happening. The tour’s happening. Get your tickets soon.”

His Australian shows round out a stacked, 50-date itinerary that begins in Europe this month, followed by dates in the UK, Canada, the US, and Australia.

Tomlinson presented himself to the world as a solo artist with his 2020 debut album, Walls. He followed it up with Faith In The Future in 2022 before returning with this year’s How Did I Get Here.

While promoting Faith In The Future during his last visit to Australia, Tomlinson still served One Direction fans with performances of Drag Me Down and Where Do Broken Hearts Go, as well as another cover: Arctic Monkeys’ 505. Revisit the setlist from that tour on The Music.
