Foo Fighters Tasmania Triumph: Record Sell-Out

Tasmanian fans are celebrating the return of rock legends Foo Fighters, proving that absence truly amplifies affection. The band is scheduled to perform a single show at Launceston's UTAS Stadium on January 24, 2026, marking their first live appearance in the Apple Isle since 2015.

This concert also holds historical significance as it will be the Foo Fighters' first-ever performance in Launceston, a city with a population under 100,000. Tickets for the event went on general sale today and sold out almost immediately, a feat described as "record time" by producers Frontier Touring, with fans nationwide rushing to secure their spots.

Frontman Dave Grohl expressed his special relationship with Australia and Tasmania, noting the band's excitement to "pop down for a gig" despite the short 48-hour visit. This regional appearance echoes their 2022 performance in Geelong, emphasizing their commitment to connecting with fans beyond major metropolitan hubs.
