Dua Lipa has today announced her long-awaited return to Australia in 2022 on her world-wide ‘Future Nostalgia’ Tour, touching down in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, playing songs from her huge 2020 album Future Nostalgia, as well as the countless other hits she’s got up her sleeve.
During the pandemic, Dua put on Studio 2054, which gave fans a taste of what her live show might look like. We’re excited to see how she brings the songs from Future Nostalgia alive in an arena setting, and the shows are shaping to be special.
Speaking about the tour, Dua says, “I am beyond excited to be bringing my world tour to Australia, it’s been way too long, but I promise, we are going to have one heck of a party.”
One of the world’s biggest artists right now, with a swag of hit singles, top selling albums, international awards and accolades to her name, Dua Lipa represents the true definition of a modern day phenomenon – singer, songwriter, performer, style creative and philanthropist.
With many shows selling out immediately, Dua’s now added an extra Sydney and Melbourne show. You can find more information out here, so get ready to party the night away.
It seems like live music is well and truly going to be back in 2022 so get yourself ready!
Dua Lipa’s eponymous debut album has eclipsed 6 million sales worldwide, with single sales reaching 80 million and the video for her break-out hit New Rules (“the song that changed my life,” she says), made her the youngest female solo artist to reach one billion views on YouTube.
She made BRIT Award history in 2018 as the first female artist to pick up five nominations, with two wins for British Breakthrough Act and British Female Solo Artist. She then went on to receive two Grammy awards for Best New Artist and Best Dance Recording for Electricity, her collaboration with Silk City the following year.
At the end of 2019, Dua performed her Number 1 global hit single Don’t Start Now at the MTV EMAs, ARIAs and AMA’s in the lead up to the release of her latest album, Future Nostalgia.
Her sophomore record was released in March 2020 and surpassed 294 million streams in its first week and has now exceeded 6 billion streams across all of its tracks.
