MARINA is set to make a long-awaited return to Australia, announcing that the Princess of Power Tour will reach local shores in February 2026. The run includes major headline dates at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion, Brisbane’s On The Banks series at the Cultural Forecourt and Melbourne’s Palace Foreshore, marking her first Australian performances in 15 years. The tour celebrates her acclaimed sixth studio album, Princess of Power, released through her independent imprint Queenie Records.

Presale opens at 1pm on Tuesday 9 December, with general tickets available the following day. A portion of each ticket will support The MARINA Fund, which provides life-affirming services, mental health support and humanitarian aid to LGBTQ+ individuals and civilians affected by conflict.

Since her breakthrough in 2009, MARINA has cultivated a fervent global fanbase across five celebrated albums, from the chart-topping Electra Heart to the radiant Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land. Her latest release, Princess of Power, is a euphoric and unapologetic record exploring healing, autonomy and reclamation. Packed with disco-charged electro pop and declarations of empowerment across tracks like ButterflyCupid’s Girl and Cuntissimo, the album presents MARINA completely on her own terms.

Her return follows a landmark year that saw her deliver a career-spanning set at Coachella and continue a legacy that includes tours with Katy Perry, Coldplay and Kylie Minogue, plus acclaim from Rolling Stone, The Guardian, Vogue and BBC Radio 1. Joining the Australian dates in Sydney and Brisbane is Mallrat, fresh from supporting MARINA on her US tour and riding high off her ARIA-nominated album Light hit my face like a straight right.

After 15 years, MARINA arrives renewed, revitalised and ready to unveil the full force of Princess of Power. Australia is about to step back into her world.
