History is about to happen as the two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, 21-time Grammy Award winner and recipient of The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire Sir Paul McCartney will be bringing his One On One Tour down under this December.
Marking his first Australian sojourn since 1993's The New World Tour, McCartney will first rock Perth's Nib Stadium before playing two shows at the AAMI Park in Melbourne. Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium will be awaiting him for a much-anticipated performance. Hosting the last two shows, the roofs of Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney will surely get blown off with McCartney's arsenal of hits that have soundtracked the lives of generations of fans.
Paul McCartney said of the tour announcement:
“We’ve been waiting to get back to Australia and New Zealand for years and now it’s finally happening. It is very exciting. I’m really looking forward to the concerts as we’ve always had such a brilliant time whenever we’ve been before so we know we are in for a treat. Can’t wait to see you and all rock out together."
The One On One Tour launched in the United States in 2016 and saw McCartney play 41 shows across 12 countries to more than 1.2 million people, gaining high marks from concertgoers and critics alike.
The One On One Tour features McCartney’s band of the last 10+ years—Paul "Wix" Wickens (keyboards), Brian Ray (bass/guitar), Rusty Anderson (guitar) and Abe Laboriel Jr (drums). Celebrating McCartney’s entire career—from his earliest work with The Quarrymen through to his most recent collaboration with Kanye West and Rihanna, as well as global treasures from The Beatles, Wings and his solo catalogue—the tour is never anything short of life-changing.
Paul McCartney and his band have played an unparalleled range of venues and locations: outside the Colosseum in Rome, Moscow's Red Square, Buckingham Palace, The White House, a free show in Mexico for over 400,000 people, the last ever show at San Francisco’s Candlestick Park where The Beatles played their final concert in 1966, and even broadcast one performance live into space!
The One On One Tour features a brand new production, as always, utilising cutting-edge art audio and video technology and ensuring an unforgettable experience from every seat in the house. Employing massive screens, lasers, fireworks and, of course, a staggering selection of the best songs ever written or performed, every Paul McCartney show promises a once in a lifetime evening that transcends and elevates the potential of live music.
Make no mistake, grab your tickets now and catch the legendary Paul McCartney, live this December!
