American rockers Thrice have announced that they’ll return to Australia in April and May 2026.

Last Down Under in 2023 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their iconic second album, The Artist In The Ambulance, this time around, Thrice will be touring in support of their latest release, the expansive Horizons / West.

The tour begins with a stop in New Zealand at Auckland’s Powerstation on Wednesday, 29 April. It continues at Melbourne’s Forum on Friday, 1 May, Sydney’s Roundhouse on Saturday, 2 May, Brisbane’s The Tivoli on Sunday, 3 May, Adelaide’s The Gov on Wednesday, 6 May, and concludes at Perth’s Astor Theatre on Thursday, 7 May.

Pre-sale tickets will be available on Friday, 17 October, at 12 pm AEDT, followed by the general sale on Tuesday, 21 October, at 12 pm AEDT. You can find more ticketing information on the SBM Presents website.

In a recent interview with The Music, singer Dustin Kensrue reflected on the band’s love affair with Australia and teased their return.

“I feel like every time we come down to Australia, we just have a blast,” he said, recalling the excitement of their 2023 tour.

He added, “We love the country, and people are super welcoming. The shows are a lot of fun. I won't lie, we're big fans of your guys’ breakfast [laughs]. The breakfast game is strong! So, that's always everyone's excited about that.”

Discussing the band’s new album, Kensrue stated that he believes Horizons / West is “thematically more dense than anything we’ve done except for probably The Alchemy Index.”

He also opened up about the band’s motivations, twelve albums into their career.

“Something we've done that's been helpful over time is not ever really setting out to prove anything to anyone other than ourselves, which I think has been helpful to the sustainability of the band,” Kensrue said.

“But more than that, even, I think the joy in creation and discovery and trying to see what we can do is what's exciting to us. That’s the way we approached this record, as well.”
