Townsville secures P!NK’s only regional stop for Summer Carnival 2024 Australasian Tour

Overwhelming demand for tickets has seen P!NK’s Summer Carnival 2024 Australia/New Zealand Tour expand to include the only regional spot at Townville’s Queensland Country Bank Stadium on Saturday 23rd March 2024.

Produced by Live Nation, the Australian tour follows P!NK’s recently concluded 21-city UK/European tour and her current 23-city North American/Canadian tour which runs through until 9th October 2023.

Live Nation Australia Chairman and P!NK’s career-long promoter, Michael Coppel shares “It’s been the thrill of a lifetime to promote P!NK’s six Australian tours since 2004, and the twentieth anniversary of that association will see P!NK surpass 3 million tickets sold in Australia and New Zealand.

“Only fitting that we break new ground with the record to be set at her first show in Northern Queensland at Queensland Country Bank Stadium.”

Live Nation Australia, President, Roger Field: adds “P!NK's Aussie shows sold out in minutes across the country, making the tour extension into North Queensland an exciting next step in meeting this unprecedented demand.

“The only regional P!NK show hosted here in Townsville is not only testament to Live Nation’s ability to deliver world class events, but our commitment in continuing to provide a world-class pipeline of major events for Queensland.”

P!NK - Australia’s number one selling female touring artist - is set to cover the largest distance of any touring artist around Australia, playing a record breaking 16 stadiums concerts around the country, with sales currently well beyond 725,000 tickets, making it the biggest selling Australian tour ever by a female artist.
