Porter Robinson has announced his return to Australia, playing three east-coast shows in February 2025. The shows are taking place as part of the American electro-pop artist’s world tour in support of his third studio album, SMILE! 😀, which was released back in July. Tour dates, pre-sale and ticketing information can be found below.
Robinson’s current world tour is billed as “a brand new, career-spanning live show”, in which the producer, singer and songwriter will be playing with a live band for the first time in his career. The two-hour show is set to incorporate songs from all three of Robinson’s studio albums – which also includes his 2014 debut Worlds and its 2021 follow-up Nurture.
Porter Robinson – ‘Cheerleader’
Robinson first toured Australia in 2012 as part of that year’s Future Music Festival, when he was only 19 years old. He returned in October 2013 to play at that year’s Fat As Butter, and again in late February 2014 to return to Future Music Festival. He played Stereosonic at the end of the year, and returned just eight months later as part of the 2015 Splendour In The Grass line-up.
Following an extensive hiatus from making music, Robinson finally returned to Australia in November 2023. He was scheduled to perform at This That festival at Sandstone Point, but the festival was later cancelled. His shows at Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena and Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion proceded ahead as planned.
