Tickets for Powderfinger's first tour in 17 years went on sale Wednesday, with concerts around Australia from September 2027.

Tickets for Powderfinger's reunion tour went on sale Wednesday, marking the Australian rock band's first tour in 17 years. The concerts will take place around Australia from September 2027, visiting Brisbane, Cairns, Perth, Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne. Shows will be staged in stadium-sized big tops, though the capacity of the outdoor venues remains unclear.

Fans expressed concern about their chances of securing tickets. Joel Connolly, a longtime fan, said he would use multiple devices to enter three different pre-sales and attempt a general ticket release. 'This part of the process for big shows is a nightmare, it's almost always really difficult to get tickets,' Connolly told AAP. 'I'm going to have to pull some magic out of a hat because there's absolutely no way I'm missing it.' Fans online worried they might miss out given the uncertainty around venue capacity.

Brisbane fan Erica Swannell secured tickets through radio station Triple M. 'I couldn't believe it when I actually got through because I rang 15 times in a row, and on the 15th call I got through, so I was stoked,' she said. She described being 'over the moon' to have obtained a ticket before the general release.
