Windwaker Plot 2025 Australian Tour

Melbourne/Naarm-based metalcore band Windwaker will tour Australia in January and February 2025, announcing their largest tour to date today.

Touring in support of their latest album, Hyperviolence, released in July this year, the rockers will be joined by special guests Thousand Below (USA) and fellow Aussies Diamond Construct and Headwreck.

Kicking off the tour at Brisbane’s Princess Theatre on Thursday, 30 January, Windwaker and friends will then visit the Newcastle Hotel (Friday, 31 January), Sydney’s Manning Bar (Saturday, 1 February), Albury’s Beer Deluxe (Sunday, 2 February), Adelaide’s Uni Bar (Thursday, 6 February), Melbourne’s 170 Russell (Friday, 7 February), and end the tour at Perth’s Amplifier Bar on Saturday, 8 February.

Tickets for the tight two-week tour will be available via the Destroy All Lines website this Friday, 1 November, at 11 am local time. However, if you’re super keen, the Destroy All Lines pre-sale opens on Thursday, 31 November, at 11 am AEDT. You can sign up for access to Early Bird tickets here.

Windwaker said of the forthcoming tour, “We’re so excited to hit the road and finally bring our new album HYPERVIOLENCE to life on stages all across Australia!

“This record was made to be experienced live, and we’ve gone all in to make sure we deliver on our biggest and best shows yet. We can't wait to share the stage with some of our favourite acts; we've made sure these are shows that you don't want to miss.”
