Scottish pop-rock icons Deacon Blue are thrilled to announce their return to Australia in January and February 2026, and New Zealand in February 2026, marking their first shows down under since 2023.
The tour will celebrate the band’s 40th anniversary and the release of their latest studio album, The Great Western Road. Known for their emotionally charged performances and enduring hits like Dignity, Real Gone Kid, I’ll Never Fall In Love Again and Fergus Sings the Blues, Deacon Blue will deliver a dynamic live experience that spans their full career — from the soulful grit of their acclaimed groundbreaking debut album Raintown to the energy of The Great Western Road.
Their new album reflects the band’s journey with honesty, warmth, and a renewed sense of adventure. Australian fans can expect a specially curated setlist, including all the hits you know and love, blending arena-sized classic anthems, tracks off their latest album, mixed with intimate surprises.
With a reputation for crafting unforgettable live moments, Deacon Blue’s 2026 tour promises to be a celebration of fan connection, nostalgia, and musical brilliance.
