Powderfinger has added additional capital city shows to their 2027 tour, after the first ticket pre-sale saw massive demand and long queues.<\/p>\n

The band announced their return last week<\/a>, ten years after their final live show in 2010, revealing they will take to the road for shows across Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Cairns in late 2027.<\/p>\n

Powderfinger formed in 1989, and released five ARIA number one albums and won 18 ARIA Awards before their split.<\/p>\n

Fight for pre-sale tickets<\/p>\n

Fans signed up for the artist and Telstra pre-sales this morning reported long waits as thousands of people attempted to score tickets to the hotly-anticipated tour.<\/p>\n

The tour’s popularity has prompted the band and partner Live Nation to add additional shows across four capital cities.<\/p>\n
