Demand for Tame Impala‘s upcoming Australia tour has triggered yet another expansion.
Following explosive demand during Friday’s onsale, which saw seven arena dates immediately sell out, Kevin Parker has added final shows in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney to the Deadbeat tour this October.
The Grammy-winning psychedelic pop outfit will now play 12 arena shows across four cities, with newly announced dates at Brisbane Entertainment Centre (Oct. 9), Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne (Oct. 17) and Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney (Oct. 21). Frontier Touring confirmed the additions after what it described as “overwhelming demand.”
Melbourne’s Oct. 16 show and Perth’s Oct. 25 hometown performance at RAC Arena are both now low-ticket warnings.
“It’s official: Australia just can’t get enough of Tame Impala,” read a previous statement from Frontier Touring, which is producing the jaunt.
Multiple award-winning Australian electronic artist, songwriter and producer Ninajirachi is the special guest on the tour, the first in these parts by Tame Impala since 2022.
On that occasion, Parker and Co. were supporting 2020’s The Slow Rush with an arena visit delayed by the pandemic. Parker did play arenas in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane in the final weeks of 2025, although in a different capacity; for that run, he was the opening DJ for French electronic maestros Justice.
Deadbeat opened at No. 2 on the ARIA Chart last October, continuing a streak that has seen all five of Tame Impala’s studio albums crack the national top 5, starting with Innerspeaker (from 2010) and Lonerism (2012), both of which peaked at No. 4. Tame Impala’s previous two albums, Currents (2015) and The Slow Rush (2020), went all the way to No. 1.
All told, Tame Impala has won 13 ARIA Awards, one BRIT Award and now two Grammys. Parker can add to his stacked trophy room with the coveted song of the year at the 2026 APRA Music Awards, for which “End of Summer” is shortlisted.
Parker has assembled a new six-piece touring band for the Deadbeat tour, which got underway with 12 sold-out shows across North America last October and November. A tour of Europe and the United Kingdom will begin this April, followed by a return to United States and Canada from June for an arena run featuring guests Djo and Dominic Fike.
