Update - 5 February, 2026: Due to pre-sale demand, Lily has added second and final concerts in Sydney and Melbourne. Scroll down for the details.
English singer-songwriter and actress, Lily Allen returns to Australia in 2026.
Back in the music spotlight with the late 2025 release of her newest album, 'West End Girl', her first record in seven years, Allen will perform the album in order with headline concerts in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.
Dubbed Lily Allen performs West End Girl and slated for October-November, these will be the 'Smile' and 'Not Fair' hitmakers first Australian shows since 2019.
While she has been somewhat out of the spotlight since the release of previous album, 2018's 'No Shame' and the subsequent touring, Lily remains an important pillar in modern pop with a host of artists crediting her for their own pursuit of music.
Billie Eilish has spoken about crying the first time she heard 'Smile'. Olivia Rodrigo – who invited Allen to perform 'F... You' at Glastonbury in protest at the US Supreme Court – credits her with showing how to "say what the f.. you want".
PinkPantheress, another admirer, put it simply: "Allen made sounding like yourself feel cool."
Allen has also had a number of acting roles in recent times including the adorable yet relatable Mel in British comedy-drama 'Dreamland' (2023).
While last year, Lily returned to the stage portraying Hedda Gabler in 'Hedda', a new re-imagining of Henrik Ibsen's play. She also became the co-host of the award-winning podcast 'Miss Me', alongside her best friend Miquita Oliver.
Alongside the title track, 'West End Girl' also features 'Pussy Palace' (which placed #38 in the Hottest 100), 'Madeline', 'Tennis' and 'Sleepwalking'. It charted in the Top 10 in Australia, and was nominated for Album Of The Year and Artist Of The Year at the 2026 Brit Awards.
Tickets on sale from 1pm (local time) on 9 February.
