Multi-platinum-selling US duo MKTO return down under this September for a run of shows across Australia and New Zealand.
After selling out shows in Melbourne and Sydney in 2025, the chart toppers return after an epic North American tour alongside The Kid LAROI and 2 Chainz, with Malcolm Kelley and Tony Oller excited to continue their love affair with Australia.
"We're super excited to still be able to do shows with music we put out years ago,” says MKTO’s Kelley. “Even more excited to add New Zealand to this run as well as more cities in Australia. Places that showed us love from the very beginning. Can’t wait to see everybody and have a good time!”
MKTO get things underway at Princess Theatre in Brisbane on Thursday 3 September, then hit Melbourne’s 170 Russell (Friday 4 September) and Adelaide’s Lion Arts Factory (Saturday 5 September) before rolling into Fremantle for a gig at Freo Social (Sunday 6 September). Then it’s off to Sydney for a concert at Liberty Hall (Thursday 10 September) and Sydney’s King St Bandroom (Friday 11 September), wrapping things up in New Zealand at The Studio in Auckland on Sunday 13 September.
