Aqua: Australian Tour 2024
Come on Barbie, let's go party — with Aqua and 2 Unlimited on this nostalgic 90s tour.
Overview
UPDATE, Friday, March 15, 2024: The Aqua with Special Guests tour is no longer taking place on Sunday, March 24 at Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena, moving to Tuesday, March 26 at Enmore Theatre instead. Also, 2 Unlimited are now the only support act. This article has been updated to reflect that change.
For the past year, we've all been living in a Barbie world, with Greta Gerwig's Margot Robbie-starring Barbie film the biggest thing in pop culture over the past 12 months. What happens when you combine the planet's love for the pink-hued hit with the never-ending trend that is 90s nostalgia? Aqua touring Australia to bust out 'Barbie Girl' at a throwback party, that's what.
Life in plastic will be fantastic when the Danish-Norwegian band make their first trip Down Under since 2019. Back then, the group responsible for still having their best-known single stuck in your head, plus 'Doctor Jones' and 'Turn Back Time' as well, toured on a bill filled with other acts from the era. This time, they're doing the same thing.
Joining Aqua on Tuesday, March 26 at Sydney's Enmore Theatre: Belgian-Dutch dance duo 2 Unlimited. Originally, the show was set to include British boy band East 17, R&B group Big Brovaz, and English dance acts Phats & Small, Booty Luv and Urban Cookie Collective, too, but they're no longer on the bill.
Your latest excuse to keep celebrating all things Barbie-related — and to get a big blast from the past — comes after Aqua popped up on the movie's soundtrack with rapper Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice on the tune 'Barbie World'.
