Red Hot Summer Clocks Up Another Sell-Out For Hobart

Overwhelming demand for Powderfinger's return has left only limited tickets for Monday's general public onsale, with the band confirming additional dates are being lined up for the 2027 Australian run.

Powderfinger will play stadium-sized big tops in six cities from September, the first time the original line-up has shared a physical stage since the Sunsets Farewell Tour closed in 2010.

Sixteen years after their final public concert, the five members end the mystery campaign with a direct video message promising shows across the country and full details next week.

Powderfinger have broken their silence on the reunion speculation, using a coded video, a refreshed website and one very specific date to turn the mystery campaign into their clearest signal yet.

Cryptic billboards in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane are connecting a series of numbers, songs and career milestones to Powderfinger, while a new Instagram account appears to be spelling out the band's history one clue at a time.

Powderfinger's second album, Double Allergic, turns 30 on 2 September 2026, marking three decades since the record established the Brisbane band as a significant force in Australian rock.

Brisbane's new outdoor concert event On The Banks expands its 2026 program with a diverse slate of support acts across QPAC's South Bank season.
