Australian music icon Vanessa Amorosi is coming home in April 2026, when she embarks on an extensive tour celebrating her 25 years in music (so far).
Throughout April and May 2026, Amorosi’s 25 Years Tour will touch down in capital cities as well as regional centres across the country, opening in Newcastle on Friday, 10 April, and hitting stages in Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne, Torquay, Sunshine Coast, and wrapping up in Brisbane on Friday, 1 May. You can see all the dates and venues below.
Known for fan favourite tracks such as Absolutely Everybody, Shine, Perfect, and This Is Who I Am, the forthcoming tour will see Amorosi honouring her successful career and the songs that have soundtracked a generation.
The Live Nation pre-sale opens on Wednesday, 24 September, at 10 am local time ahead of the general sale on Thursday, 25 September, at 11 am local time. You can find tickets on the Live Nation website.
Promising an “arena-sized sound” with her vocals and her excellent band for these intimate shows, Amorosi said of the upcoming tour, “As I celebrate 25 years, this tour is a tribute to who I was, who I am, and everything in between.
She added, “It’s also a celebration of how far these songs have come. Performing still brings me the same energy and connection it did from the very beginning. I’ve taken time to reflect, refine, and shape the strongest version of these songs. I’m excited to share this tour, celebrate it and make new memories.”

Reviewing her performance at the 2023 Grapevine Gathering festival, The Music’s Michael Prebeg wrote, “Starting off with This Is Who I Am, Amorosi unleashes her huge powerhouse vocals as she commands the stage and draws the audience in to fill the mosh pit. She belts out hit after hit with nostalgic tracks from her back catalogue, including Have A Look, Mr Mysterious and the heartfelt Perfect.
“Amorosi shares some of her new music that’s got a soul-gospel influence, including a song called Wolf, which gives us a taste of her new direction. Before rounding out her set with Shine (mixed in with a verse of TLC’s Waterfalls), she unleashes the anthem we’ve all been waiting for (Absolutely Everybody), and we lose ourselves to the iconic ‘90s pop hit.”
Also in 2023, Amorosi was honoured with the Inspiration Award at the Australian Women In Music Awards.
