Olivia Dean Confirms Huge 2026 Australian Arena Tour
Olivia Dean fans, the news you’ve been waiting for has finally landed – and it’s big. After the incredible response to her last visit Down Under, it’s been confirmed that the British singer-songwriter is returning to Australia and New Zealand in 2026 for a massive arena tour. The announcement follows her lightning-fast sellout of the Fleet Steps show in Sydney earlier this year, which left so many people hoping she’d be back for more. Well, those hopes have now been answered.
The tour, called The Art of Loving , will kick off in Naarm/Melbourne at Rod Laver Arena on Tuesday, October 6, 2026. From there, Olivia will head to Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Friday, October 9, before making her way north to Brisbane’s Entertainment Centre on Tuesday, October 13. She’ll wrap things up across the ditch in Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland at Spark Arena on Saturday, October 17. It’s a run that proves just how much her popularity has skyrocketed in this part of the world.

By the time she steps onto those stages, her second album, also titled The Art of Loving , will have been out for over a year. That means there’s more than enough time for fans to learn every lyric and belt them out together. The album is said to explore love in all its forms – not just the big, cinematic moments, but the small, everyday ways we connect with one another. Olivia herself has explained that this project is about finding meaning in those honest, sometimes overlooked interactions that shape our relationships.
Her rise has been nothing short of remarkable. Her 2023 debut album, Messy , was nominated for the Mercury Prize, earned BRIT Award nods, and even landed a track on the soundtrack of the latest Bridget Jones film. From festival stages at Laneway earlier this year to one-off shows at iconic venues like the Sydney Opera House Forecourt, Olivia has been steadily building a strong connection with audiences here. And now, an arena tour feels like the natural next step.
Tickets will go on general sale at 11am local time on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, but fans can jump in early through several presales starting a few days beforehand. If her past shows are any indication, these tickets won’t hang around for long. The Fleet Steps gig proved just how quickly she can sell out a venue, so it’s wise to plan ahead.
So here it is: Olivia Dean is set to return in 2026, bigger than ever, with a full arena tour that promises to be one of the most anticipated live music events of the year. It might feel like a long wait until October rolls around, but when it does, you can bet those shows will be worth every second of anticipation. Consider it a future gift to yourself – one that’s guaranteed to come with soul, style, and plenty of singalongs.
