Tame Impala are officially coming home.
Following the release of Kevin Parker’s acclaimed fifth studio album Deadbeat, the Tame Impala mastermind has announced a major Australian arena run set to hit Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth this October.
Tame Impala – ‘Dracula’
The newly announced Deadbeat Tour marks Parker’s first Aussie headline shows of this era – and they arrive after an absolutely massive global rollout. Tame Impala have already stormed North America with a string of sold-out dates, with UK and European shows kicking off soon, followed by another huge US and Canada run mid-year. Now, it’s finally our turn.
And yep – every show comes stacked with support from one of Australia’s fastest-rising electronic stars, multiple ARIA-winner Ninajirachi.
The tour celebrates Deadbeat, Parker’s bold new album, released in late 2025. Led by singles ‘Loser’, ‘End of Summer’ and ‘Dracula’, the album signalled a sonic shift – leaner, crunchier and more spontaneous, while still unmistakably Tame Impala.
‘Dracula’ alone became one of Parker’s biggest radio debuts ever and landed at #3 in triple j’s Hottest 100 – nearly two decades after Tame Impala first appeared in the poll.
The album itself was largely crafted between Fremantle and Parker’s WA studio, Wave House in Injidup – a fittingly homegrown foundation for the project now bringing him back to Aussie arenas.
And if the accolades are anything to go by, Parker is operating at full power right now. Earlier this year he picked up his first solo GRAMMY for Best Dance/Electronic Recording for ‘End of Summer’, following his 2025 win in the same category for his Justice collab ‘Neverender’.
Meanwhile, support act Ninajirachi is arriving with serious momentum of her own. Her debut album I Love My Computer absolutely dominated 2025, scooping the Australian Music Prize, multiple J Awards and three ARIAs – making her one of the most decorated breakout artists in recent memory.
Tickets go on sale Friday 27 February, with Frontier presale kicking off Wednesday 25 February.
