US singer-songwriter Alex Warren has announced he will return to Australia and New Zealand this year for a headline arena tour.

The California-born artist has today confirmed shows in Christchurch, Auckland, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth throughout August and September in support of his ‘Finding Family on the Road’ . Warren visited our shores late last year for eight sold-out performances.

Warren performed at this year’s Grammy Awards as one of the Best New Artist nominees. But 30 seconds before he hit the stage, just as Katseye concluded their performance, Warren realised his in-ears weren’t working. In the spirit of “the show must go on,” he continued with the performance anyway. There was clearly something wrong, but it was too late to fix it.

“It was horrifying,” Warren said on a recent episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast. “We rehearsed it all week. All week, we were rehearsing. It was perfect. It went well, and to this day, I don’t know exactly what happened.”

Meanwhile, his global hit song, “Ordinary”, is currently tied for the second longest running No. 1 single in ARIA chart history after it spent 17 straight weeks on top in 2025.

General public tickets go on sale from 11am on Friday, March 20th. Click here for more details and check out all of the dates below.
