DAVE

THU 18 JUNE 2026

PRESENTED BY: Live Nation | Secret Sounds | triple j

Acclaimed artist and songwriter Dave has today announced his long-awaited Australian arena tour for June 2026, marking his first shows in the country since 2019.

Presented by Live Nation, Secret Sounds and triple j, the tour kicks off in at Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Thursday 18 June, with stops in Sydney and Melbourne, before wrapping up at RAC Arena in Perth on Saturday 27 June, giving fans across the country an unforgettable opportunity to see him live in action.

Renowned for his razor-sharp storytelling and genre-defying approach to rap, Dave has become one of the most respected voices in contemporary music. He has dominated the rap scene, captivating audiences with his honesty, introspective lyrics, and magnetic stage presence.

The tour follows the release of The Boy Who Played the Harp, Dave’s first new project since 2023. That year, his self-produced Central Cee collaboration “Sprinter” became the first UK rap single to debut at #1 on the Australian chart, where it remained for seven weeks. His latest single, “Raindance”, featuring Tems, looks set to join “Sprinter”, “Location” and “Clash” in achieving platinum status in Australia.
