Lewis Capaldi has confirmed the special guests for his upcoming Australia and New Zealand tour.
The Scottish pop superstar is heading Down Under next month, playing shows in Christchurch, Auckland, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth through November and December (see full dates below).
These dates will be Capaldi’s first time performing in Australasia since Falls Festival in 2019/20, and his Auckland Town Hall show in 2019.
At Capaldi’s forthcoming Aotearoa shows, rising star Jude Kelly, who previously featured in Rolling Stone AU/NZ, will act as support.
Joining Capaldi across all tour shows is his friend Aaron Rowe, while Central Coast musician Fletcher Kent will provide support at all Australian shows.
Capaldi heavily hinted at plans for an Australia tour during a previous TikTok livestream. When asked whether he planned to visit these shores for a tour, he teased: “I don’t know, maybe just stay tuned, my friend, keep a keen eye on social media, perhaps in the near future.”
Capaldi made a triumphant return to Glastonbury this year, returning to the iconic festival’s stage two years after he last performed there in 2023. That set saw him lose his voice and battle pronounced tics brought on by Tourette’s syndrome, which he was diagnosed with in 2022. Soon after, Capaldi announced he would take a break from touring to focus on his mental and physical health.

Back at Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, Capaldi told the crowd he was there to “finish what I couldn’t finish.” He arrived shortly before 5pm and opened with “Before You Go”, followed by fan favourites “Grace” and “Bruises” from his 2019 debut album Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent. He also debuted a new song, “Survive”, in which he reflects on the challenges of the past two years.
“I’m not going to say much up here today, because if I do, I’ll probably start crying,” he told the crowd. “It’s just amazing to be here with you all, and I can’t thank you enough for coming out and coming to see me. Second time’s the charm on this one.”
