Lorde fans are eating well this year. Not only did we get a killer album that we're all playing on repeat, but the Kiwi pop star has also announced a world tour that's set to kick off in September. And she's just dropped dates for Australia and Aotearoa.
"I am going on tour in support of my new album, Virgin. Very proud and excited to be bringing my most talented friends in support," the musician wrote in a recent Instagram post, "Come see what’s under the skin."
This tour announcement comes off the back of Lorde unveiling her long-awaited fourth album, Virgin, which dropped Friday, 27 June. The album's synth-pop lead single, What Was That, was released a week earlier following a cancelled appearance at Washington Square Park, which was shut down by the New York City police due to a lack of official permits and an overwhelming amount of fans crowding the location.
You can find the list of Australian and New Zealand dates for Lorde's Ultrasound World Tour below.
When is Lorde touring Australia and New Zealand?
Lorde will kick off her down under tour in Auckland/Tamaki Makaurau on 11 February 2026, before heading down to Christchuch on 13 February, She'll then head over to Australia to play Brisbane's Entertainment Centre on 16 February, before travelling to Melbourne for a show on 21 February, wrapping with a Perth concert on 25 February at RAC Arena.
