Powderfinger Extend 2027 Reunion Tour With Nine‑Show Encore Run

The band added dates to ease an overwhelming ticket shortfall and organisers are using presales, a ticket cap and refunds to widen access.

Overview

  • Late October the band announced a nine‑show “Encore Run,” expanding the 2027 reunion trek from 26 to 35 dates to meet excess demand.
  • The new shows include two nights at Melbourne Park Oval, two at Cornelian Bay Oval in Hobart, two at Sandalford Estate in Perth, a single date at Stage 88 in Canberra and two hometown nights at Brisbane Showgrounds.
  • Presales open Wednesday, November 4 and the general public sale begins Thursday, November 5 with a strict eight‑ticket limit per purchase and a refund option for fans who already bought tickets in other cities.
  • Organisers have assembled an all‑Australian support roster across the Encore shows with acts such as Ocean Alley, Violent Soho, The Living End, Ball Park Music, John Butler Trio, DMA’S and Thelma Plum among many others.
  • The run reunites Powderfinger’s classic five‑member lineup for their first full tour in 17 years after more than 300,000 tickets sold in six days and promoters signalled there may be further dates, with Adelaide specifically flagged.
