Patti LaBelle Is Coming to Australia and New Zealand

Patti LaBelle is bringing her powerhouse vocals Down Under, with a tour of Australia and New Zealand set for 2026.

Widely celebrated as the “Godmother of soul”, LaBelle’s timeless elegance will grace Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, Gold Coast, and Auckland in January, marking an extraordinary celebration of her 80th birthday and 65 years in entertainment.

LaBelle is an absolute force. Over the years, her name has become synonymous with grace, style, and class. Her effortless ability to belt out classic rhythm and blues renditions, pop standards and spiritual sonnets has created the unique platform of versatility that the artist is known and revered for.

For more than six decades, she has left an indelible mark all over the world. The Philadelphia-born entertainer first emerged in 1962 and the lead singer of The Bluebelles, before she went on to receive worldwide acclaim with the trailblazing and genre-bending trio, Labelle.

A solo artist since the 1970s, Patti has created timeless songs that have helped cement her place as a music icon and garnered her numerous honours, including Grammy Awards, American Music Awards, NAACP Image Awards, New York Times bestselling books, and more.

Australian and New Zealand fans can expect unforgettable evenings of music with her 2026 tour, spanning decades of hits including “Lady Marmalade”, “On My Own”, “If Only You Knew”, and more.
