Get ready to dance, sing, and lose yourself in the electrifying atmosphere as she brings her latest hits to life.
Lorde: A Royal Comeback
Lorde’s last Australian tour was in March 2023, in support of her album, Solar Power. She is touring again after nearly three years—making it a significant return for her fans. Initially announcing dates only for the US and UK, she later announced tour dates for Australia and New Zealand.
The arena run kicks off at Auckland’s Spark Arena on February 11th. After a stop in Christchurch on February 13th, the artist will move on to perform at Brisbane Entertainment Centre. Her later venues include Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena. Finally, she will perform at RAC Arena Perth, on February 25th.
General release tickets have gone on sale at 2pm local time on Friday, July 18 via the Frontier Touring website. The pre-sale for American Express Card Members had begun at 1pm on Tuesday, July 15. A pre-sale for Frontier Members went live at 2pm on Thursday, July 17.
Tickets are priced at around $110 for C Reserve Seating in Australia. VIP packages likely stretch up to around $300.
What to expect
Virgin is described as a journey of self-discovery, moving away from the more melancholic tone of Melodrama and embracing a more confident and assertive energy. The album explores themes of womanhood, identity, and personal evolution, suggesting a more mature and introspective feel.
With a strong fan base in Australia, Lorde’s music often resonates with the country’s diverse musical landscape. The blend of alternative, indie, and pop elements on Virgin is likely to appeal to a wide range of listeners in Australia, where these genres are popular.
Lorde and The Aussie Connection
Lorde’s music has been critically acclaimed and has achieved significant chart success in Australia, particularly with her debut album ‘Pure Heroine’ and the hit single ‘Royals’. The pop-star has a reputation for captivating live performances, which has built a loyal fanbase in Australia.
The recent announcement of her Australian tour dates came after fans expressed disappointment over the initial exclusion of Australia from her tour schedule. This indicates the strength of her fan base there.
Lorde’s fans are in for a feast! The ‘Ultrasound World Tour’ is coming, and it’s going to be incredible. As the dates approach, expect the air to crackle with anticipation as Australians prepare to welcome Lorde back to their shores.
