Powderfinger Announces Reunion Tour After 17 Years

Powderfinger has announced the details of a reunion tour taking place 17 years after their breakup. The band will launch the tour next September in Brisbane with four nights of concerts, followed by 14 additional shows held in stadium-sized tents across Cairns, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, and Melbourne.

Performances will take place only on Friday and Saturday nights, following a schedule similar to the one Oasis used on their world tour last year. As of October 12, 2026, the Oasis songs Wonderwall (Remastered) and Don't Look Back in Anger (Remastered) hold the number 20 and number 32 spots on the Apple Music UK songs chart.

During their career, Powderfinger released seven studio albums, including the 2000 album Odyssey Number Five, which listeners voted the greatest Australian album of all time in 2011. After the group disbanded, lead singer Bernard Fanning focused on a solo career, while bassist John Collins opened two of the largest live music venues in Brisbane.
