Back on home soil following their North America and UK-Europe '24 tours, the six-piece – known for their singles 'Confidence', 'Yellow Mellow' and 'Knees' – join Crowded House and Meg Mac as part of the Saturday line-up.
"The After Race Concert Series is set to fire on all cylinders, with an impressive line-up on offer across the weekend," VAILO Adelaide 500's Event and Concert Manager Brian Gleeson OAM says.
"We're excited to extend Saturday's music offering to include an internationally renowned and home-grown act in Ocean Alley and can't wait to see the boys energise our fans alongside headliner Crowded House.
"Having performed to sold out crowds across the globe and at an impressive list of major festivals including Reading & Leeds (UK), Sziget (HU), BottleRock (US) and Ottawa Bluesfest (CAN), Saturday's After Race Concert Series will be an event not to be missed for our motorsport and music fans alike."
Two of Australia's biggest musical acts – Crowded House and Cold Chisel – will headline this year's VAILO Adelaide 500 After Race Concert Series.
After revealing a run of Australian concerts last week, Crowded House will take to the stage on Saturday evening for a set crammed with iconic hits like 'Don't Dream It's Over', 'Weather With You', 'Better Be Home Soon', 'Fall At Your Feet' and 'Something So Strong'.With 13 ARIA Awards, 15 million albums sold globally and their eighth album 'Gravity Stairs' released this Friday, Crowded House will be joined by Australian artist Meg Mac ('Roll Up Your Sleeves', 'Low Blows').
"It is so exciting to have rock royalty Crowded House perform for our fans for the first time at the 2024 VAILO Adelaide 500 After Race Concert Series," Event and Concert Manager Brian Gleeson OAM says. "With 13 ARIA Awards, they are an internationally renowned act who will no doubt draw fans from all across the state."
One of Australia's legacy bands, Cold Chisel is turning the Big Five-O and they're celebrating their golden anniversary with a national tour that will finish up in the band's home town headlining the Sunday post-race concert.
"Some of the best moments of my life have been spent on stage with Cold Chisel and I hope we keep going 'til the day we drop," Jimmy Barnes says. "I can't wait to celebrate our 50th anniversary with our Adelaide fans who have been such a big part of our story from the beginning. We're gonna smash it!"
Supporting Cold Chisel on the Sunday night will be ARIA Award-winning chart toppers The Cruel Sea and home town rock heroes The Superjesus.
Both Saturday and Sunday line-ups will be complemented by support acts provided by Music SA.
