Australia’s favourite emotionally raw rock outfit, The Smith Street Band, are hitting the road again in 2025. This September, October and November, the beloved Melbourne band will launch their Star Child East Coast Tour 2025. Taking their electrifying live energy across Victoria, New South Wales, the ACT and Queensland. With over 20 shows booked and tickets already on sale, this is shaping up to be one of the band’s biggest runs in years.
East Coast 2025 The Smith Street Band
Formed in 2010 and named after a Collingwood street, The Smith Street Band 2025 tour will continue their legacy of powerhouse performances, cathartic lyrics and anthemic punk-infused rock. Their devoted fanbase has followed them from sweaty pub gigs to massive festivals. Now, they’re bringing their newest material and classic singalongs to both regional centres and major cities.
The Smith Street Band 2025 tour will highlight new music and fan favourites alike. Renowned for heartfelt storytelling, delivered with unfiltered honesty by frontman Wil Wagner. Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to their catalogue, each show promises big emotions and even bigger choruses.
The Smith Street Band 2025 Tour
Tour highlights include return stops at intimate venues like SOOKI LOUNGE in Belgrave and Drifters Wharf in Gosford, as well as regional favourites like The Northern in Byron Bay and King Street in Newcastle. With tickets already moving fast, fans should act quickly to secure a spot at what will be some of the year’s most memorable gigs.
This tour follows the release of several acclaimed albums, including 2022’s Life After Football. Which captured the band’s unique ability to turn everyday struggles into rousing rock. The Smith Street Band 2025 shows will blend those themes of anxiety, joy, heartbreak and resilience into a live show that hits like a bolt of lightning.
Regional East Coast Australia Dates
This time around, The Smith Street Band 2025 are digging deeper into the Australian map. They’re showing their love for regional fans with stops in Albury, Tamworth, Port Macquarie, and Wagga Wagga. The venues may be small, but the energy will be massive.
If you’ve ever screamed the words to Death To The Lads, I Still Dream About You, or Don’t Fuck With Our Dreams, now’s the time to catch them live again. Or for the first time. This is the kind of tour that builds lifelong memories. The community and chaos of a Smith Street gig is a special kind of magic, unfiltered, sweaty, and impossible not to love.
Massive Tour Up The East Coast
With the tour stretching over three months, from 18 September to 1 November, fans across the East Coast will have plenty of chances to witness one of the country’s most important bands do what they do best: play their hearts out on stage.
