Nessa Barrett Announces 2025 Australian Arena Tour

Published

Nessa Barrett is set to return to Australia in December for her biggest headline shows to date, building on a breakout global run that’s seen her grow from rising star to certified pop contender.
The Aftercare artist will perform three major headline dates, starting Dec. 9 at Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena, followed by Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on Dec. 10 and Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on Dec. 16. The run complements her previously announced appearances at all four dates of the 2025 Spilt Milk Festival, where she joins a lineup that includes Kendrick Lamar, Doechii, Dominic Fike, Sombr and more.
The new shows follow Barrett’s sold-out Australian debut in 2023 on her Church Club for the Lonely Tour, which formed part of her first global tour. That trek spanned 60 dates and saw the singer perform to over 83,000 fans across North America, Europe, and Australasia, as well as appearances at major festivals such as ACL Main Stage, Reading & Leeds, and Pukkelpop.
Barrett’s second studio album Aftercare, released in late 2024, introduced a more refined electro-pop direction while retaining the confessional songwriting that built her initial fanbase. The record includes singles “PASSENGER PRINCESS” and “MUSTANG BABY,” a collaboration with breakout U.K. artist Artemas.
With more than 2 billion global streams, Barrett has quickly carved out her space in a new class of Gen Z artists balancing streaming success with live impact. Her debut album Young Forever helped solidify her early buzz and featured viral singles like “i hope ur miserable until ur dead” and “la di die” with jxdn and Travis Barker.
Barrett was named to Billboard’s 21 Under 21 list in 2024, earned a slot on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart and made her debut on the Billboard 200 with Young Forever in 2022.
Tickets for the AFTERCARE Australian tour go on sale Friday, May 23 at 1 p.m. local time, with a Frontier Members presale beginning Wednesday, May 21 at 12 p.m.
