Lorde will return to arena stages across New Zealand and Australia in February 2026, with dates confirmed for her Ultrasound World Tour. It marks the Auckland-born artist’s first performances on home soil since her 2023 Solar Power Tour.

The tour begins at Spark Arena in Auckland on Wednesday 11 February, before heading to Christchurch’s Wolfbrook Arena on Friday 13 February. Australian dates follow, kicking off at Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Monday 16 February, before shows at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney (Wednesday 18 February), Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne (Saturday 21 February), and concluding at Perth’s RAC Arena on Wednesday 25 February.

Lorde’s latest album Virgin, released via EMI Music Australia and Universal Music New Zealand, has topped the charts in New Zealand, Australia and the UK, and reached #2 on the Billboard 200 in the US. Co-produced by Jim-E Stack and Dan Nigro, the record blends widescreen pop production with her characteristic lyrical sharpness. The 11-track album includes ‘What Was That’, ‘Man Of The Year’, ‘Hammer’, ‘Favourite Daughter’ and ‘Shapeshifter’.

Presale tickets will be available to American Express Card Members from 1pm local time on Tuesday 15 July, and to Frontier Members from 2pm on Thursday 17 July.

General sale begins Friday 18 July at 2pm. More info HERE.
