**MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA – March 3, 2025** – Global pop superstar Dua Lipa’s highly anticipated “Radical Optimism” tour of Australia and New Zealand is set to kick off this month, with all shows already completely sold out. The tour, in support of Lipa’s chart-topping third studio album, will see the Grammy and Brit Award winner perform across five nights in Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena (March 17, 19, 20, 22, and 23), three nights in Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena (March 26, 28, and 29), and two nights in Auckland’s Spark Arena (April 2 and 4).

Adding to the excitement, rising Australian pop star Kita Alexander has been confirmed as the special guest for the Australian and New Zealand leg of the tour. Alexander, an ARIA-nominated artist, will be promoting her new single, “Press Pause,” set for release on March 6th. The single, described by Alexander as a song about “holding space” for someone in need, showcases her honest songwriting and infectious melodies, further solidifying her position as a force in the Australian music scene. Alexander’s debut album, “Young in Love,” reached #3 on the ARIA Australian album chart in 2024.

Lipa’s tour follows a triumphant 2024, which included a lauded performance at Glastonbury Festival and a sold-out run of shows in Southeast Asia. Her “Radical Optimism” album debuted at #1 in 11 countries, including the UK, where it achieved the biggest debut from a UK artist in 2024. The album also received widespread critical acclaim, lauded by publications like The New York Times and Vogue. Lipa’s success continues with sold-out shows already booked for London’s Wembley Stadium in June 2025.
