Empire of the Sun’s 2027 Tour of Australasia Will Be Their Biggest Yet
Produced by Frontier Touring, the Ask That God: Afterlife Tour will visit six cities across Australia and New Zealand next February and March.
Empire of the Sun has announced a six-date tour of Australia and New Zealand for 2027, marking their largest tour in the region to date. The production, courtesy of Frontier Touring, will commence in New Zealand on February 19, 2027, at Auckland's Spark Arena. The itinerary then moves across the Tasman Sea for shows in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth.
This tour is the final live installment of the Ask That God experience, expanding upon the themes introduced in the band's 2024 album of the same name. The statement from Frontier Touring describes the tour as a celebration of imagination, transformation, and connection in a rapidly changing world. Emperor Steele, better known as Luke Steele, expressed anticipation for new musical experiences and breaking barriers on the tour.
The lineup includes the band's frontman and producer Lord Littlemore. The duo has achieved significant success, with four albums topping the ARIA Chart, shifting over five million albums, capturing six billion streams, and winning eight ARIA Awards. Their hit single "Walking on a Dream" received widespread recognition, including a Top 10 ARIA hit in 2008 and charting in the Billboard 100 through a Honda commercial in 2016.
Empire of the Sun and Danny Ocean collaborated on the FIFA World Cup 2026 single "Llego," which was released in July 2024. Pre-sale tickets for the Australian leg of the tour go on sale on September 18, 2024, for Frontier Members, with general sale tickets available through the band's official website.
