The Swedish pop powerhouse Zara Larsson will officially end her decade-long absence from Australian stages by launching her massive new world tour under the stars at Brisbane’s Riverstage.
A Long Promised Return
The upcoming visit marks the first time the singer has performed her own headline shows in the country in eleven years. While she was originally meant to visit as a supporting act earlier this year, she had to cancel those plans at the last minute. To make it up to her local fans, she shared a video online of herself singing a classic Delta Goodrem song and promised to come back with a show of her own.
True to her word, the Midnight Sun Tour 2026 kicks off at the Riverstage in Brisbane on October 14. From there, she travels to Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on October 15 and Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena on 17 October. The final legs of the trip include the Entertainment Centre Theatre in Adelaide on 18 October and a closing night at Perth HPC on 20 October.
From Child Star To Global Icon
Larsson has undergone a massive transformation since she last visited Australian shores. She first found fame in Sweden as a ten-year-old talent show winner before evolving into a global chart-topper with billions of streams. Her career reached new heights with the massive success of her song Lush Life and her work with groups like Clean Bandit.
Recently, she has taken more control over her music by starting her own record label called Sommer House. Her latest music draws inspiration from the high-energy sounds of the early 2000s and her own Swedish roots. She recently told reporters that Australia was one of the first places to ever support her music and she felt that a return visit was long overdue.
Securing A Spot
Local fans have already begun sharing their excitement online following the official announcement from promoters. Many people noted that they have been waiting since their primary school years to see the singer perform live.
Because of the high demand, several early ticket windows will open before the general public can buy them. The first chances to grab a seat start with artist and partner presales on Wednesday, 11 February, at 9 am local time. Another chance follows on Thursday, 12 February, for Live Nation members. Anything remaining will go on sale to everyone else on Friday, 13 February, at 10 am.
