Laneway Festival 2027 tour changes

Overview

Laneway Festival organizers announced significant changes to the 2027 tour schedule, including a hiatus from Adelaide and Perth. The decision to omit these cities was made to manage logistical challenges associated with touring vast distances and to allow artists to perform more headline shows in cities not visited by the festival.

Organizers clarified that the break is not permanent, stating via social media, “this isn’t goodbye, just see you soon.”

Following the initial announcement, the festival released its specific 2027 route. For the first time, the tour will open in Sydney at Centennial Park on February 12. The itinerary continues to the Brisbane Showgrounds on February 13, moves to Flemington Park in Melbourne on February 19, and concludes at Auckland’s Western Springs Bowl on February 21.
