Blink-182 have announced a fifth Melbourne concert for their 2024 Australia tour.
Today, concert organiser Live Nation Australia announced that the band have added a fifth Melbourne show, set to take place on February 29 at the Rod Laver Arena. It will also be the final Melbourne concert to be added to Blink-182’s extensive Australia run of shows.
All four previously announced Melbourne concerts have been sold out.
Vodafone pre-sale tickets to the newly announced Melbourne concerts will go on sale tomorrow (June 14) at 12pm local time for just 48 hours. On Friday (June 16), Live Nation pre-sale tickets will go on sale until 11am on June 19.
General tickets will then be made available from 12pm local time on Monday, June 19 via Live Nation.
In October, Blink-182 released ‘Edging’, the band’s first single to feature DeLonge since 2012. It’ll feature on the band’s upcoming ninth album. The record is yet to be formally unveiled, however DeLonge has already described it as “the best album of our career” as well as their “most progressive”.
Shortly before the new single was released, DeLonge shared a personal message to Skiba, thanking him for his work with the band. Skiba later responded, saying he’s “truly happy” for the reunited trio.
In April, Travis Barker shared a promising update on the band’s upcoming album, saying the “album will be finished before we leave on tour.” Blink-182 were originally due to kick off their world tour in March with a tour of South America but those dates were postponed to 2024 due to Barker injuring himself while drumming. The band kicked off their tour in May following their surprise last-minute addition to Coachella in April.
