Lily Allen will return to Australia and New Zealand in 2026 for her first tour of the region since 2019, announcing a series of arena dates where she will perform her album West End Girl in full.
The British singer songwriter is set to begin the tour in Auckland on October 21 before travelling to Australia for shows in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth, with the final concert scheduled for November 1. All performances on the tour will be licensed all ages events.
The announcement follows a renewed presence for Allen on Australian radio and charts after West End Girl secured two entries in triple j’s 2025 Hottest 100 countdown. The title track reached number 88 while the song Pussy Palace placed at number 38, signalling continued interest in her recent work among local audiences.
Allen described the upcoming dates as her biggest Australian headline run to date. In addition to performing West End Girl from start to finish, the concerts are expected to include material from across her catalogue, including tracks such as Smile, The Fear and Not Fair, which have remained staples of her live sets.
Tickets for the Australia and New Zealand shows will go on sale at 1 p.m. local time on Monday February 9, with several presales planned in the days beforehand. Further information about ticketing and venues has been made available through the official tour website.
The singer last toured Australia in 2019 following the release of the album No Shame. Since that visit she has largely stepped back from extensive touring while continuing to issue new music and make selected live appearances.
