June
Leon Thomas
You might remember Leon Thomas from Victorious, but don’t get it twisted: the three-time Grammy winner is now one of music’s most exciting up-and-comers, not to mention the mind behind some of the biggest R&B hits of the moment.

Famous for his hits like ‘Sprinter’, ‘Thiago Silva’, ‘Funky Friday’ and ‘Samantha’, Dave’s huge Aussie following will no doubt be ecstatic at his return.

September
Ashnikko
US pop provocateur Ashnikko returns to Australian shores for her Smoochies tour this September.

Lily Allen
Sydney’s response to hearing that this West End girl is heading Down Under was huge. The English singer-songwriter returned with West End Girl seven years after No Shame, delivering lyrically honest and vocally striking songs that firmly cemented her comeback as a huge success.

Her album Midnight Sun is full of confidence, dance hits and songs that show off the singer’s impressive vocal range. This performance is guaranteed to be a highlight in Sydney’s pop calendar.
Where: Hordern Pavilion, Gate C/3 Driver Ave, Moore Park NSW 2021.
When: October 15 and 23.
Price: $119.90.
5 Seconds of Summer

Their Everyone’s A Star! world tour sees them return to their home stage in Sydney at Qudos Bank Arena, where they’ll play the explosive singles “NOT OK,” “Boyband,” and now “Telephone Busy”, as well as some of their popular, older hits (we’re hoping for “She Looks So Perfect”).

Conan Gray
American singer-songwriter Conan Gray is bringing his Wishbone World Tour down under this October, kicking off an incredible month of music.
