The Australian Open has unveiled an incredible music lineup for 2025 under its new entertainment banner, AO LIVE. The only music event to be held at a Grand Slam worldwide, AO LIVE will take place across three massive days during the Australian Open tournament in January 2025. This year’s entertainment will feature the biggest lineup to date, headlined by globally renowned artists including Benson Boone, Kaytranada, Kesha, Armand Van Helden and more.

AO LIVE’s lineup, programmed by Untitled Group – Australia’s largest independent music and events promoter – will offer a packed schedule of live performances across the AO precinct featuring bands, solo performers and DJs. The three days of entertainment, from January 23rd to 25th, will take place at John Cain Arena, with two major evening performances leading to a festival-style grand finale on the last day.

First up on Thursday 23 January, pop sensation Benson Boone will take to the stage. The American singer-songwriter skyrocketed to stardom with over 1.9 billion global streams to his name. Benson made headlines with his memorable performance at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this year, where he took home the award for Best Alternative Video.

Following Benson Boone is world-renowned DJ and producer Kaytranada, performing on Friday 24 January. The Grammy Award-winning Canadian artist is a household name in music globally, having opened for The Weeknd’s ‘After Hours Til Dawn’ Tour in 2022 and also performed at Coachella 2023. With two Grammy Awards and five nominations under his belt, Kaytranada’s blend of house, hip-hop, and electronic beats is set to ignite the dancefloor.

The final day of AO LIVE will coincide with the Women’s Finals on Saturday 25 January, delivering a full day of festival-style entertainment. Kicking off at 11am, the event will feature performances from multiple artists, culminating in a grand finale featuring pop icon Kesha and legendary DJ Armand Van Helden to close out the three day affair.

American DJ and producer, Armand Van Helden, celebrated for hits such as “My My My” and “You Don’t Know Me” featuring Duane Harden, continues to have an undeniable effect on dance music globally.

AO LIVE has entertainment covered for all tastes and is all-inclusive on a Ground Pass ticket,” Australian Open Tournament Director Craig Tiley said.
