Following a massive sold out Australian tour last year to mark the release of Gravity Stairs, multi-platinum, global-Award winning melodic luminaries Crowded House will embark on Australia Tour 2025 – Pop Up Shows, a rare and intimate tour this October and November. Trading arenas for small, atmospheric venues across the country, the band will bring their timeless catalogue to life in cozy settings, where fans can expect the kind of close connection that only happens when legends play to a roomful of true believers. This is Crowded House as you’ve never seen them—up close, personal, and unforgettable.
Presented by Live Nation and Triple M, the tour will commence at Cairns Convention Centre on October 8, followed by Townsville Entertainment and Convention Centre on October 9, Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on October 14, State Theatre, Sydney on October 22, Melbourne’s Palais Theatre on October 29, The Green Room, Byron Bay on November 18, before concluding in Hobart at MyState Bank Arena on November 26.
Crowded House have sold over 15 million records worldwide as well as earning a Brit Award, 13 ARIA Awards, 3 Aotearoa Music Awards and an MTV VMA. The band has generated billions of streams, consistently sold-out tours on multiple continents and captivated audiences for nearly four decades.
Originally founded by Neil Finn, Nick Seymour, and the late Paul Hester, the group’s self-titled debut in 1986 went platinum, uplifted by worldwide smashes “Something So Strong” and “Don’t Dream It’s Over”, the latter covered by everyone from Miley Cyrus and Ariana Grande to U2, among others.
In 1996, the group delivered a legendary performance to an audience of over 150,000 on the steps of the Sydney Opera House, beginning a hiatus that finished in the wake of Paul’s passing in 2005. This led to albums Time on Earth (2007) and Intriguer (2010) and a return to the Sydney Opera House for four unforgettable nights. 2018 saw Neil join Fleetwood Mac as a full-time member, canvassing the globe on a massive world tour. Two years later, he and Nick led another era of Crowded House, forming the band’s current line-up. They issued their first full-length offering in eleven years; the unanimously acclaimed Dreamers Are Waiting (2021) and the band leapt into a rapturous world tour in support. 2024 saw the release of Gravity Stairs, the band’s eighth studio album.
