Overview
- Massive Attack confirmed three Australian headline shows for August 2026 — Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Aug. 6, Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney on Aug. 9, and Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on Aug. 11.
- Frontier Touring is presenting the run and has scheduled a Frontier Members presale from June 4 with general tickets going on sale June 5 via frontiertouring.com and local ticket outlets.
- The tour announcement coincides with the release of 'Boots on the Ground,' a new collaboration with Tom Waits that is the group's first major new material in several years.
- The band, led by Robert '3D' Del Naja and Grant 'Daddy G' Marshall, has a long record of political and climate activism and has developed low‑carbon live‑music practices with partners such as the Tyndall Centre, Ecotricity and UN Race to Zero.
- Massive Attack rose from Bristol's early‑1990s scene and are credited with helping invent trip‑hop; their last studio album was Heligoland in 2010 and their live shows are known for immersive audiovisual production and rotating guest vocalists.
