About this event

More than 50 years after American Pie reshaped popular music, Don McLean returns to Australia this October to mark the song's 55th anniversary. Still touring at 81, McLean continues to captivate audiences with performances that celebrate a catalogue woven into the cultural fabric of the late 20th century and beyond. From the iconic opening lines of American Pie to beloved classics such as Vincent (Starry, Starry Night), Castles in the Air, and And I Love You So, his concerts are more than performances - they are shared memories brought to life. McLean also reflects on the stories behind the songs, adding intimacy and depth to the experience. Released in 1971, American Pie remains one of the most recognised songs in modern music, but McLean's legacy extends far beyond a single hit. His body of work stands among the most enduring in contemporary songwriting. This tour offers Australian audiences a rare chance to reconnect with a true musical icon. .

Guy Sebastian - 100 Times Around The Sun

Approximate Running Times: Doors - 6:00pm Support - 7:00pm Main - 8:00pm Following the chart-topping success of his 2020 Platinum-certified album T.R.U.T.H. , and a sold-out national tour that cemented his reputation as one of Australia's most beloved live performers, Guy returns to stages across the country for an epic run of all ages shows from April to May 2026. Fans can expect a banging set filled with Guy's biggest hits, think Battle Scars, Before I Go and Choir alongside new tracks from 100 Times Around The Sun, a soul-filled, heartfelt record brimming with optimism, perspective and signature Sebastian power vocals. "I honestly can't wait to get back on stage and perform these new songs live," says Guy. "This album is all about joy, perspective, and connection and nothing brings that to life more than a live show. Touring is the most fulfilling part of what I do. I love seeing the power of music bring people together. It's why I do this. .
