American pop-punk trio Waterparks have announced their debut Australian headline tour. The band will play five shows in the country in October in support of their new album Intellectual Property, which arrived last week. The tour will kick off Tuesday, 3rd October at Magnet House in Perth, before shows in Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.
UPDATE 03/05/2023: Waterparks’ Melbourne show has been moved from 170 Russell to Forum due to demand.
Waterparks – Funeral Grey’
They’ll be joined on the road by Canadian singer-songwriter Lights. See full dates and venues below. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, 21st April at 10am AEST. There’s a pre-sale kicking off Wednesday, 19th April from 5pm AEST which you can register for here.
While the upcoming tour marks their first full Australian run as headliners, the trio are no strangers to our shores. They first visited in 2018, touring the country supporting fellow US rockers The Maine. They returned at the end of that year as part of the inaugural Good Things festival lineup, also performing a handful of their own sideshows.
Intellectual Property was released last Friday, 17th April following singles like ‘Funeral Grey’ and the blackbear-assisted ‘Fuck about It’. The follow-up to 2021’s Greatest Hits is Waterparks’ fifth studio album overall, and first with label Fueled By Ramen, who the band signed with last year.
