First announced as part of this year’s Strummingbird Festival lineup, rapper-turned-country music star Post Malone has revealed a run of headline shows across Australia and New Zealand.
Last here in 2023, where he sold-out arenas and headlined Spilt Milk Festival, Malone’s The BIG ASS World Tour marks the global superstar’s largest headline shows in the region to date.
Malone will be joined on the road by special guest Don Toliver, whose most recent album, this year’s OCTANE, came in at #1 on the Billboard 200 and is currently the highest-selling hip hop record of 2026.

Post Malone is the definition of a global superstar. The Dallas, Texas, artist is a genre-blurring creative who is 9x diamond-certified with three #1 Billboard 200 albums.
His most recent release, 2024’s country album F-1 Trillion, landed at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart and spawned the singles ‘Guy For That’ featuring Luke Combs, ‘Pour Me A Drink’ featuring Blake Shelton and mega-smash ‘I Had Some Help’ with Morgan Wallen.
The album earned Post eight Grammy nominations and led to him headlining Coachella in 2025 before embarking on his BIG ASS Stadium tour, which finally makes its way down under this October.
