Japanese global superstars YOASOBI are heading to Australia for the first time, announcing two headline dates as part of their eleven-date tour of Asia and Oceania, SUPER PLANET, alongside details for Hong Kong shows.

For their Australian debut, YOASOBI take over arenas. They’ll perform at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Wednesday, 17 March, and Sydney’s Afterpay Arena on Friday, 19 March.

An artist pre-sale for the Australian shows runs from Thursday, 12 November, at 12 pm local time – register here for access. The general sale begins on Friday, 13 November, at 12 pm local time; visit the Live Nation Australia website for more ticketing information.

YOASOBI, comprising composer Ayase and vocalist ikura, are known for their fast-paced, complex brand of music, characterised as a blend of J-pop and Vocaloid music.

Their 2023 single, Idol, established the record for the longest-running #1 in Japan Hot 100 history with 22 non-consecutive weeks, becoming the first Japanese act to top the Billboard Global Excl. US chart.

The duo’s first four EPs—The Book, The Book 2 (2021), The Book 3 (2023), and The Book For, (2026)—explore their “reading CD” theme. Written and produced by Ayase, YOASOBI's latest project includes RIAJ-certified singles Undead and the 2024 NHK sports event theme, Butai ni Tatte, as well as the collaborative track with Overwatch, Orion.

This year, the duo completed their largest-ever North American tour, drawing more than 70,000 fans across six shows. They became the first-ever J-pop group to perform at OSHEAGA festival.

In 2024, they performed acclaimed sets at Coachella and Lollapalooza, alongside sold-out headline shows in North America, including New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Last year, the duo completed their largest Asia arena tour to date.
