The Red Hot Summer Tour, has announced its impressive all Australian line-up for the 2025 season. With a great array of celebrated artists, the event is set to deliver a series of unforgettable performances across various locations in Australia. The legendary band Icehouse is set to headline the tour, accompanied by a host of famed Australian acts including Noiseworks, Wolfmother, Eskimo Joe, Baby Animals, Killing Heidi, and Bachelor Girl.
This HUGE line up of artists continues the tour’s history of sold-out events. The tour is renowned not only for its entertainment value but also for celebrating iconic Australian music.
Leading the lineup, Icehouse, with a career spanning over 45 years, has earned a reputation as one of Australia’s most iconic bands, appealing to a wide range of age groups. Their compelling music history includes accolades such as 28 Platinum albums and numerous top-charting singles. Their song “Great Southern Land,” which remains a substantial part of the national musical identity, was inducted into the National Film and Sound Archive’s Sounds of Australia registry.
Noiseworks, an integral part of the 1980s music scene, are known for their anthemic rock songs like “No Lies” and “Take Me Back.” Reunited with their original band members, they are set to bring their high-energy performances to the RED HOT SUMMER TOUR, following the success of their latest album and national tour.
Wolfmother, led by vocalist and guitarist Andrew Stockdale, continues to enjoy international acclaim, having shared stages with legendary bands and performed at major global music festivals. Their distinctive sound blends classic and modern rock, making them a formidable presence in the rock music scene.
Eskimo Joe, another highlight of the lineup, boasts a significant track record with multiple chart-topping albums and numerous awards. Known for hits like “Black Fingernails, Red Wine,” the band has maintained a strong influence in the Australian music scene through their engaging live performances and innovative music style.
Celebrating three decades since their explosive entry into the music scene, Baby Animals are set to perform their classic hits, which have earned them multi-platinum status and several prestigious awards. Similarly, Killing Heidi recognises 25 years since their debut, bringing their energetic pop-rock tunes to the stage.
Completing the lineup, Bachelor Girl continues to be celebrated for their articulate songwriting and compelling performances. Their return to the stage is highly anticipated, following their previous successes both in Australia and internationally.
The tour’s schedule includes performances at various prominent outdoor venues in Mornington, Coffs Harbour, Southport, Lake Macquarie, Berry, Swan Valley, and Wodonga. These locations not only offer a backdrop for the concerts but also enhance the overall experience for attendees, making it a true summer celebration.
The anticipated run of shows will commence in January 2025, with ticket availability beginning soon. Pre-sales for ANZ Visa cardholders open shortly, followed by general public sales. Based on the popularity of the acts and the legacy of the tour, early booking is highly recommended to secure attendance.
