Huge British pop star set for Perth return with arena show

Lily Allen will perform her tell-all album West End Girl inspired by her marriage breakdown, with shows in major arenas across New Zealand and Australia.

  • On October 21, Lily Allen announced an Australia and New Zealand arena tour hitting Auckland, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth between October 21 and November 1, calling it the biggest headline run of her career.
  • Her album West End Girl, released in October 2025, is a tell‑all record inspired by the breakdown of her marriage to David Harbour and peaked at number two on the UK albums chart.
  • Presales start February 4 and 5 with general tickets at 1 p.m. local time on February 9 for all-ages shows at Spark Arena, Brisbane Entertainment Centre, TikTok Entertainment Centre, Rod Laver Arena, and RAC Arena.
  • The tour marks Allen's first Australia/New Zealand run in over seven years since her 2019 No Shame tour, and she said her two children, ages 13 and 14, will join her on the road.
  • Chart momentum and a crowded summer lineup position the tour within Australia's larger live market, with Allen's two entries in triple j's Hottest 100 at 38 and 88 boosting attention amid Perth's busy live-music calendar this year after Ed Sheeran's recent Optus Stadium shows.
