Tom Odell to bring Wonderful Life Tour to Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne in January 2026
Tom Odell is making a highly anticipated return to Australia in January 2026, with his Wonderful Life Tour set to hit Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne. This tour marks his first full national run since 2014, following the success of his back-to-back sellout shows at the Sydney Opera House last year.
The tour coincides with the release of Odell’s seventh album, A Wonderful Life. This record, born out of constant movement and reflecting modern-day anxieties, captures the essence of doomscroll fatigue, fleeting hope, and raw intimacy. The songs on the album were crafted on tour buses and in hotel rooms, but they exude the warmth of a live studio performance with a full band.
Fans attending the tour can expect a setlist that spans Odell’s career, from the globally acclaimed “Another Love” with over 3 billion streams to the poignant new tracks like “Don’t Let Me Go.” Odell’s unique voice, which seamlessly balances fragility with fierceness, remains the heart of his music and has endeared him to Australian audiences for over a decade.
Over the past decade, Tom Odell has evolved from a Brit Award-winning newcomer to a globally recognized artist whose music resonates across generations. With billions of streams on songs like “Another Love” and a massive following on TikTok, Odell’s reach extends far beyond traditional pop boundaries. However, behind the impressive numbers lies a songwriter who prioritizes honesty, vulnerability, and genuine connection in his work. As he transitions into his mid-thirties, Odell’s musical journey reflects an artist who has navigated the industry’s challenges and redefined his role within it, forging a global community in the process.
The Wonderful Life Tour kicks off at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on January 16, then heads to Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on January 18, and concludes at Melbourne’s Festival Hall on January 21. Presales begin on September 9, with general ticket sales starting on September 11 through Live Nation.
With a stellar lineup and a highly anticipated album release, Tom Odell’s Wonderful Life Tour promises to be a memorable musical experience for fans across Australia. Don’t miss the opportunity to witness this acclaimed artist performing live in some of the country’s most prestigious venues.
