Lewis Capaldi Announces 2025 Australia and New Zealand Arena Tour
Lewis Capaldi is officially bringing his powerhouse vocals back to Australia and New Zealand later this year, marking his first headline tour in the region in more than five years.
The Scottish singer-songwriter will hit arenas across seven cities, kicking off at Christchurch’s Wolfbrook Arena on Nov. 30 before making stops in Auckland, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and wrapping at Perth’s RAC Arena on Dec. 17. The tour is presented by Secret Sounds, Live Nation and WME.
The announcement follows Capaldi’s emotional return to the stage at Glastonbury Festival last month, where he drew a headline-sized Pyramid Stage crowd for a hit-packed set that doubled as a triumphant comeback after two years out of the spotlight. “Second time’s a charm on this one,” Capaldi told the crowd. “I just wanted to come and finish what I couldn’t finish last time.”
During the set, he debuted his new single “Survive” alongside fan favorites “Before You Go,” “Grace,” “Hold Me While You Wait,” “Bruises” and a unifying performance of “Someone You Loved.” The appearance came after warm-up gigs in Scotland for Mental Health Awareness Week, which were held in partnership with mental health charity CALM.
Fans who purchased tickets to his cancelled 2023 tour will have priority access through a Past Ticket Holders Presale running from July 10 at 11 a.m. local time until July 14 at 11 a.m. local. A Secret Sounds presale follows on July 11, before tickets open to the general public on July 14 at 12 p.m. local time.
The tour arrives as Capaldi enters a new chapter in his career. His latest single “Survive” reunites him with Romans, co-writer of his global smash “Someone You Loved.” That song recently hit 10x Platinum in Australia and remains the U.K.’s most streamed song of all time.
Capaldi’s sophomore album, Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, gave him his second U.K. No. 1 album and spawned three chart-topping singles: “Pointless,” “Wish You The Best” and the platinum-certified “Forget Me.” His 2019 debut, Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent, was the biggest-selling U.K. album of 2019 and 2020 and earned him BRIT Awards and a Grammy nomination.
The star also found global streaming success with his Netflix documentary Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now, which became the platform’s most-watched film upon release in April 2023, offering fans an unflinching look at the pressures of fame and the mental health struggles behind his meteoric rise.
