Bruno Mars has been tapped as the opening act for Sydney’s new Allianz Stadium. Mars will help to officially launch the rebuilt stadium with two shows in October.
The news comes just one month before the new Allianz Stadium’s scheduled opening date. Originally planned in 2018 to replace the since-demolished Sydney Football Stadium (which itself was known as Allianz Stadium from 2012), the new 45,000-capacity venue is set to host various live events and serve as a home to the Sydney Roosters, New South Wales Waratahs, and Sydney FC.

Mars will appear at the stadium on Friday, 14th October and Saturday, 15th October. These are the Hawaiian star’s first headline dates in Australia since his 2018 tour.
“It’s incredibly exciting to welcome audiences back to Allianz Stadium in the heart of Sydney and who better to lead the opening celebrations than the legendary, record-breaking artist Bruno Mars,” said Paul Dainty AM, President and CEO of TEG Dainty in a statement. “These opening shows will go down in history as not to be missed.”
Tickets for these upcoming shows will go on sale from 1pm on Thursday, 11th August, with a Telstra Plus pre-sale set to run 48 hours from Monday, 8th August.
