American rock legend Bruce Springsteen has stirred the pot, letting slip to Rolling Stone that plans are underway for an Australia tour next year—finally making good on Aussie fans left hanging after the European leg wraps up in Milan on July 3.

“I feel bad … but I want them to know that we are planning to get down there as soon as feasible, probably in the next year sometime,” Springsteen told Rolling Stone.

At 75, The Boss is in impressive form. His Land of Hope and Dreams tour kicked off in Feb 2023 and will wrap this July at Milan’s San Siro after a globe‑trotting stint. Aussie fans can expect fewer shows but more bang for their buck next time round.

Biopic, Box Set & Beyond: What The Boss’s Got Planned

Aussie Tour: The Skinny

  • When? Likely sometime in 2026, after Europe.
  • Where? Expect major cities—similar to 2017’s visits: Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne could be on deck.
  • Tickets? Keep an eye out—Ticketek waitlists are already active.

Aussie Vibe Check

Springsteen’s last Down Under run in 2017 saw sold‑out shows at AAMI Park, Hanging Rock, and Brisbane—his first in six years at the time. With Tracks II and the biopic prepped, 2026 could be Springsteen’s biggest comeback yet.

Bottom Line:
The Boss isn’t going silent anytime soon. With new music, a Hollywood biopic, and a possible Aussie tour on the horizon, 2025–26 will be vintage Springsteen. If you’re keen for a slice of that rock‑and‑roll redemption, grab your hoodies and Prep-Sheets: this ride’s going global—then back Down Under.
