Ethel Cain Adds Six Australia & New Zealand Shows to 2026 Tour
Ethel Cain’s 2026 Australia and New Zealand shows go on Frontier presale Aug. 13 and general sale Aug. 18, with Auckland via Ticketmaster NZ.
Ethel Cain is bringing her Willoughby Tucker Forever world tour to Australia and New Zealand in February 2026, adding six dates presented by Frontier Touring and Penny Drop. The run opens Feb. 14 at Auckland Town Hall, marking her first-ever New Zealand show, before heading to Melbourne’s Palais Theatre for two nights, Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion, Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall, and closing at Fremantle Arts Centre.
Tickets go on Frontier Member presale Aug. 13 at 11 a.m. local, with general on-sale Aug. 18. Auckland tickets will be available through Ticketmaster NZ, while Australian dates follow Frontier’s authorized links.
The ANZ leg supports Cain’s second album, Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You, released Aug. 8, 2025 — a self-produced prequel to her 2022 debut Preacher’s Daughter. Lead singles Nettles and Fuck Me Eyes teased its mix of indie-pop and ambient textures.
This tour follows a global run that sold roughly 170,000 tickets across North America and Europe, including major venues like Radio City Music Hall. Cain last appeared in Australia in 2023 at Vivid LIVE, RISING, and Dark Mofo, making the 2026 return a significant upgrade in venue size and profile.
