Dua Lipa: 'Radical Optimism' Tour

Overview

After headlining the post-parade party at the 2020 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras and then bringing her Future Nostalgia tour Down Under in 2022, Dua Lipa is coming back to Australia in 2025. The Grammy-winner's massive Radical Optimism tour is rolling into Melbourne for its time under lights — and to turn the rhythm up — on Wednesday, March 19–Thursday, March 20, then again across Saturday, March 22–Sunday, March 23, at Rod Laver Arena.

2024 has been a huge year for the singer, with her third studio album Radical Optimism releasing in May and then the artist headlining Glastonbury. She also popped up in Argylle in cinemas. 2023 was no slouch, either, given that 'Dance the Night' graced the Barbie soundtrack and Dua Lipa featured in the film as a Barbie. But with her new tour, 2025 looks set to be even bigger.

As well as Radical Optimism and Future Nostalgia, Dua Lipa has tracks from her self-titled 2017 debut record to bust out, including 'Be the One', 'Hotter Than Hell', 'Lost in Your Light', 'New Rules', 'IDGAF' and 'Blow Your Mind'.

Initially, there was just one Melbourne gig on the agenda — but due to demand, the 'Don't Start Now', 'Physical', 'Break My Heart', 'Cold Heart' and 'Houdini' talent expanded her time in the Victorian capital.
