New shows go on sale to the general public on 18 June

#TheBigFive0

New gigs have been added in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne where all tickets sold out in minutes of their release last week (see all dates and venues listed below). Shows have also been added for Canberra and the Hunter Valley following an outcry from fans in those regions. These new dates take the Australian tour to 23 concerts including a hometown appearance at the VAILO 500 in Adelaide which is onsale now.

Tickets for these new shows will be released exclusively for pre-sale to members of the Cold Chisel, Face-to-Face Touring and ticketing company mailing lists from Monday, 17 June at 1.00pm AEST to Tuesday, 18 June at 12.00pm AEST unless sold out earlier.

Final tickets will then be released to the General Public on Tuesday, 18 June at 1.00pm AEST.

“We were completely blown away by the response last week,” said Cold Chisel frontman Jimmy Barnes. “The demand for tickets was bigger than anything we’ve ever seen before.”

“Unfortunately we can’t do gigs everywhere so we’ve tried to get to the places where the outcry was loudest. That’s why we’ve added new shows in Canberra and the Hunter Valley, as well as additional gigs in Brisbane and Sydney plus two more in Melbourne,” says Chisel guitarist/vocalist Ian Moss. “The reaction of our fans has really fired us up – we can’t wait to play for everyone.”

In addition to The Big Five-0 Tour, Cold Chisel is also releasing 50 Years – The Best Of on Friday, 23 August and it’s available on multiple double-vinyl formats, on double-CD and on download and streaming services. The album, like the tour, covers all of their classic songs. It also features one great new track – You’ve Got To Move. To pre-order the album, go here

All shows are listed on the Cold Chisel website (coldchisel.com) and there’s still time to join the Cold Chisel mailing list for preferred access to tickets.
