next month in front of a possible 25,000 fans. The concert is part of a drive to resuscitate the live music industry ‘Down Under,’ which has not welcomed a major international touring act since federal authorities closed the country’s borders in March 2020.
The band will play on March 4 at the GMHBA Stadium in Geelong, south of Melbourne, Victoria. The announcement came just days after Australia reopened its borders to all vaccinated visitors with effect from Monday. Announced by Frontier Touring, the concert also marks the start of a partnership with the Victoria government’s Always Live, a state-wide celebration of contemporary live music launching later this year. Always Live will feature local and international acts and is intended to bring music fans into Melbourne and regional Victoria, helping to support local jobs and tourism businesses.

They will arrive hot on the heels of the release of schlock horror comedy film “Studio 666,” featuring front-man“The Foo Fighters always put on an epic performance and this concert will further cement our position as Australia’s home of live music,” said Victoria’s Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Martin Pakula., who passed away unexpectedly last year.
