Acclaimed artist and songwriter Dave has announced his long-awaited Australian arena tour for June 2026, marking his first headline tour since the release of his last album ‘We’re All Alone in This Together’ in 2021.
Presented by Live Nation, Secret Sounds and triple j, the tour kicks off in at Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Thursday 18 June, with stops in Sydney and Melbourne, before wrapping up at RAC Arena in Perth on Saturday 27 June, giving fans across the country an unforgettable opportunity to see him live in action.
Renowned for his razor-sharp storytelling and genre-defying approach to rap, Dave has become one of the most respected voices in contemporary music. He has dominated the rap scene, captivating audiences with his honesty, introspective lyrics, and magnetic stage presence.
The tour follows the release of ‘The Boy Who Played the Harp, Dave’s first new project since 2023. That year, his self-produced Central Cee collaboration ‘Sprinter’ broke the record for the longest-running #1 rap record in UK chart history (10 weeks) succeeding his 2022 single ‘Starlight’, which set the record for the longest-running No.1 solo UK track and marked the first UK No.1 by a sole writer and producer in eight years. ‘Sprinter’ also achieved success across Europe, taking the top #3 spot in Denmark, Sweden, Holland and Norway, while collab with Tiakola ‘Meridian’ achieved #1 in France in the same year.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
