We know when that hotline bling, it can only mean one thing. In huge news for Drake fans Down Under, the Canadian rapper has just announced he’ll be coming to Australia in 2025, with 12(!) confirmed shows on his Anita Max Win Tour of Australia.
It’s been eight years since the world-famous star has performed on Australian soil, and in true Champagne Papi style, he teased his return to Oz via a series of cryptic Instagram stories before confirming via live stream in late November. Here’s everything you need to know about getting tickets to Drake’s 2025 tour of Australia.
When and where is the Drake Australia tour?
The Grammy-winning artist is set to bring his Anita Max Win Tour to three Aussie cities in 2025, including:
- Perth's RAC Arena – February 4 and 5
- Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena – February 9, 10, 12 and 13
- Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena – February 16, 17, 19 and 20
- Brisbane Entertainment Centre – February 24 and 25
When do Drake Australia tickets go on sale?
Drake tickets go live to the general public on Friday, December 6 at 12pm / noon local time via his website and Live Nation.
Is there a presale for Drake’s Australia show?
There are not one, but three presale opportunities for Drake's Aussie concerts. Mastercard cardholders will have first dibs with a special presale on Tuesday, December 3 from 12pm / noon local time here. Vodaphone customers will be able to access a presale at the same time (but you'll need to sign up for the presale code in advance here). Finally, Westfield members will score access to exclusive reserved tickets from Thursday, December 5 at 1pm local time. You'll need to sign up to be a Westfield member first though here.
Drake Australia ticket prices
As usual, ticket prices for this tour are still under wraps, but we’ll let you know here as soon as we get our hands on the info.
Is Kendrick Lamar also coming to Australia and New Zealand?
As soon as the announcement about Drake broke, the first question a lot of people had was: “Is Kendrick Lamar coming Down Under, too?” Yep, it’s been difficult to bring up one name without the other, ever since Drake and Kendrick’s hip-hop-history-making beef blew up in a big way with a vicious series of diss tracks earlier in 2024. Adding fuel to the hopes of KenFolk, Kendrick just announced the Grand National Tour, a joint North American stadium tour with SZA. (Considering that SZA’s recent tour just sold out a bunch of arenas in Australia, we’re doubtful that the long-time collaborators’ joint tour will head down here anytime soon.) At the time of publishing, there are no confirmed plans for Kendrick to head to Australia, but you can join Ticketek’s waitlist to be the first to know when it happens.
