Brooks & Dunn Reveal First Australian Tour in 18 Years for 2027

Brooks & Dunn continue their global momentum in 2027 with two headline Australian dates after closing out CMC Rocks QLD’s 20th anniversary in March.

Returning to Australia for the first time in 18 years, the Country Music Hall of Famers will bring their live show to Sydney’s Afterpay Arena on March 24 and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on March 27, giving fans a rare opportunity to experience one of country music’s most enduring and influential acts on their own headline stage.

Grammy, CMA and ACM award winning singer-songwriter Ashley McBryde and rising Queensland artist Mack Geiger will join as support on both dates.

Frontier and The Drove members can access pre-sales beginning Oct. 8 at 10:00 AM local time before the general onsale Oct. 9 at 10:00 AM local time.

Brooks & Dunn’s long-awaited return to Australia is the latest live milestone in a landmark year for the duo, whose music continues to reach new audiences around the globe. Earlier this year, they performed in the U.K. for the first time ever, headlining C2C and playing to record-breaking crowds in Belfast, Glasgow and London.

Shortly after, they headlined Stagecoach before rejoining Morgan Wallen on nearly a dozen dates of his “Still The Problem Tour.” Currently on the headlining “Neon Moon tour,” Brooks & Dunn are playing sold-out venues across the U.S. throughout fall.

This year, Brooks & Dunn are also celebrating the 35th anniversary of their seminal debut album Brand New Man. More than three decades later, the songs that started it all continue to resonate with fans around the world, with the RIAA recently certifying “Neon Moon” 8x Platinum and “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” 5x Platinum. The album’s first-ever vinyl pressing arrives Oct. 23, giving fans a new way to experience the record that launched one of country music’s most celebrated careers.

The most awarded artists in CMA history, Brooks & Dunn are currently nominated for CMA Vocal Duo of the Year and will receive the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award, one of country music’s highest honors, at the CMA Awards in November.
