How do the presales work?

All times are local to the show, according to Ticketmaster Australia.

• Album pre-order presale. Thursday, October 22 at 12 p.m. You get access by pre-ordering O My Beloved from the band's store before 4 p.m. AEDT on Wednesday, October 21. That deadline has passed. The Note says the pre-order goes through artistfirst.com.au.
• Mastercard and Vodafone presales (Australian shows). From 12 p.m. on Thursday, October 22. The Note says they run until 12 p.m. AEST on Tuesday, October 27, with details at priceless.com/music and vodafone.com.au/ticket. You need to pay with a Mastercard or be a Vodafone customer.
• Westpac Mastercard presale (Auckland only). From 12 p.m. on Thursday, October 22, according to Rolling Stone Australia.
• Live Nation presale. From 12 p.m. on Friday, October 23, which is today. Ticketmaster says Live Nation members log in and choose Buy Tickets, with no code. The Note says to register at livenation.com.au/register.
• General sale. 1 p.m. local time on Tuesday, October 27. The Note and Dork both give Tuesday, and so does Rolling Stone Australia. The Ticketmaster Australia page says "Monday 27 October", but October 27, 2026 is a Tuesday, so treat Monday as a typo and check your event page.

What are the ticket rules?

• Limit. Ticketmaster says up to 10 tickets per show in presale and in general sale, and orders over the limit may be cancelled, including orders linked by name, email, address or card.
• Mobile only. Ticketmaster says tickets are delivered in the Ticketmaster app, with no printed tickets, and need a My Ticketmaster account. Transfer is supported.
• Sydney. The Ticketmaster Australia page says Sydney tickets are sold through Moshtix rather than Ticketmaster.
• Age. Dork and Rolling Stone Australia describe the Sydney show as all ages, with children 12 and under free and youth tickets for 13 to 17. Dork adds that under-18s must attend with a responsible adult. We found no age policy published yet for the other three shows.
• Accessible tickets. Ticketmaster Australia says to book through its Help Centre under Accessible Bookings, or to call 1300 446 925.

Sydney Summertime: who else is playing?

Sydney Summertime is a new outdoor concert series at Centennial Park. Rolling Stone Australia and Dork say The Strokes open it on Saturday, February 20, 2027 with Beck, Courtney Barnett and Promiseland, and that Kings of Leon are the second headliner. Dork says Secret Sounds and Live Nation stage the series and that more headliners will be announced "in the coming months".

Tips for getting tickets

• Know which presale you can use. There are four different presale routes, and each has its own eligibility rule. The pre-order and Mastercard routes depend on what you did or hold before the sale starts.
• Sort your account now. Ticketmaster's own tips are to update your account details beforehand, keep your phone handy for the text verification code, check purchase limits with your bank, and use one device and one tab.
• Plan the night. These are big outdoor sites, in a park, a showground and a racecourse. Look up your transport home before you go. Our guides for Auckland, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne cover the usual routes.
• Buy from the authorised seller. Our guide to buying concert tickets safely in Australia and New Zealand explains how to spot fake sites and what the resale rules say. Treat any ticket offered before a sale opens with suspicion.
• First big outdoor show? Our first concert tips cover the basics.

What if it sells out?

Go back to the seller you used. Ticketmaster says transfer is supported in the app, and our safe-buying guide covers authorised resale and what to do if a ticket is cancelled.
