Here are the latest updates on Avenged Sevenfold’s activities in Australia:
- Avenged Sevenfold have announced their first Australia tour in 12 years, with shows across Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne, plus a date in Auckland, New Zealand. The tour kicks off in Sydney on October 16 and runs through October 20 in Melbourne before heading to New Zealand on October 23 [TheMusic.com.au 2026-04-12/14-04-26][TheLivewire 2026-04-13][MusicFeeds 2026-04-14].
- They’ll be supported by Coheed and Cambria and Thornhill on all Australian dates, with tickets going on sale to general public after presales for Deathbats Club and ticketing partners [TheMusic.com.au; Kerrang!; TheNote.com.au].
- Pre-sales are staggered: Deathbats Club and Deathbats Rewards holders get early access, followed by artist and Mastercard/Westpac presales, then general sale later in April 2026 [TheMusic.com.au; Kerrang!; TheNote.com.au].
- Primary venues include Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Brisbane’s Entertainment Centre, and Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, with the final show in Auckland at Spark Arena in New Zealand [TheMusic.com.au; MusicFeeds; Kerrang!].
Illustrative example: if you’re planning to attend, aim for the Sydney date (Oct 16) as your first option and check whether any of the three supporting acts align with your preferences or time in Australia.
If you’d like, I can compile a concise event calendar with exact dates, venues, and current ticketing links, and I can add a note on regional travel options from Los Angeles to each city.
