Queen have announced that they will return to Australia for a tour in 2018.
The music legends, who are touring the UK and Europe in 2017, will bring their live tour to Australia for five shows across Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
The band’s remaining members, Brian May and Roger Taylor, will be joined by US singer-songwriter Adam Lambert, who also joined Queen on their most recent Australian tour back in 2014.
Queen’s co-founder and drummer Roger Taylor says the tour “will look entirely different to the show we took around before”, with an all-new production.
“What people should know if they came to the shows a couple of years back, is obviously we will still be playing the big hit songs you know and love from Queen, but we thought it would be good to challenge ourselves a bit,” Adam Lambert said.
“Change it up a little bit, change the visuals, change all the technology, change the set list to some degree. We will probably be pulling some other songs out of the Queen catalogue which we haven’t done before, which I am very excited about.”
