About This Event
Multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and performer YUNGBLUD, whose catalogue has accumulated an astonishing 8 billion streams globally, will bring his IDOLS world tour to Australia for his biggest shows to date in January 2026. Following the colossal news that his 2026, 24-date North American tour sold out in just one minute, the tour is now making its way through Europe before heading to Australia in the new year with stops in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth. YUNGBLUD is rapidly becoming one of the most influential musical voices of his generation, blending elements of rock and punk to monumental effect. Known for his electrifying stage presence, his arena-filling performances have cemented his status as one of the world’s most exciting musical exports. In 2024 YUNGBLUD debuted his own curated festival, Bludfest, and released a book — the No. 1 Sunday Times Bestseller You Need to Exist: A Book to Love and Destroy — before unleashing his critically acclaimed, chart-topping fourth album, IDOLS in June, alongside the Paul Dugdale directed documentary, YUNGBLUD: Are You Ready, Boy?. Capping off a mammoth year, YUNGBLUD was handpicked by Ozzy Osbourne to perform the Black Sabbath ballad ‘Changes’ at the Back To The Beginning benefit concert, launched the IDOLS world tour and announced a collaborative EP with multi-GRAMMY® Award-winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame® inductees Aerosmith. Introduced with lead single ‘My Only Angel’, the EP titled One More Time will be released on November 21 via Capitol Records. IDOLS marks a bold new chapter for YUNGLBUD and he’s bringing it to life on stage with a powerful live show you won't want to miss.

PAWS for hope and understanding: Service dogs for veterans
“The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog” - M.K. Clinton Join us on Sunday 18 January for a free talk exploring the important role that service dogs play for ex-defence personnel. Since World War I, dogs have always accompanied Australians to war, whether as mascots, messengers, scouts, guards or comforting companions. Dogs have served our nation with courage, bravery, valour and enduring loyalty, saving the lives of countless military personnel and civilians. Beyond the battlefields, they also play a crucial role as service animals, supporting veterans who are experiencing mental health issues. In this talk, guest speaker Bill Marklew OAM from PAWs for Hope and Understanding will explore the long history of dogs in the ADF. He will also share how PAWs, a not-for-profit organisation, is providing ex-defence personnel with task-trained service dogs that offer unwavering support for those navigating the challenges of mental health, specialising in PTSD. PAWs trains dogs to perform a range of life-enhancing tasks, from fetching objects to alerting and alleviating medical episodes, allowing veterans to reclaim their independence and find comfort in adversity. For Bill, a Vietnam veteran, the work of this program is especially important: “I served in the Army (Infantry) for 24 years, with a diagnosis of PTSD, and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Raven, my angel with paws, settles me during nightmares or panic attacks by putting her paws on my shoulder and sits across my lap until the panic subsides. Without her I may not be here. She has made such a difference in my life.” Since 2015, PAWs has successfully placed 118 'angels with paws' to worthy veterans and assisted 2536 veterans with disability claims.
