Australian singer-songwriter Troye Sivan has unveiled Australian dates for his Something To Give Each Other tour, which includes a performance at the Sydney Opera House forecourt.
The show has already been on a whirlwind seventeen-date tour in Europe and will next go to North America before coming Down Under in November.
The Australian leg of the tour kicks off on November 19 in Adelaide, followed by Melbourne on November 21. Brisbane fans will get their chance to see Sivan live on November 26 before he wraps up the tour with a performance at the Sydney Opera House Forecourt on November 28.
Despite Sivan being raised in Perth, Tuesday’s announcement excluded the city as a place where he will perform this tour. In response to a fan asking why, Sivan said on Instagram: “I’m not saying there’s more shows that haven’t been announced yet but chill on me for a sec.” Sivan now calls Melbourne home, although he is often in Los Angeles or elsewhere.
Sivan previously played sold-out tours across Australia for his debut album Blue Neighbourhood in 2016 but hasn’t performed a tour in the country since 2019 when he showcased his Bloom album.
The Australian-raised superstar is currently in Australia while he gets ready to take his current tour to America in collaboration with Charlie XCX, who recently released her own album Brat. The duo are heading to 21 cities across the US and Canada starting in September.
During one of Sivan’s Europe shows, Charli XCX joined him on stage for a performance of 1999. Ross Lynch, who features in Sivan’s One of Your Girls music video, also made a special appearance.
Joining Sivan on his Australian tour is Sydney artist Nick Ward, a rising star in the bedroom pop scene. Known for his debut EP Everything I Wish I Told You and Brand New You, Ward was named Ticketmaster’s 2023 Breakthrough Artist.
Sivan’s latest album Something To Give Each Other has garnered significant acclaim, earning him two Grammy nominations, four ARIA Awards, and nearly 250 million album streams. In 2024, he won Song of the Year at the APRA Awards for Rush and the album was shortlisted for the Australian Music Prize.
