With forty years on the road, countless untold stories and one of the most powerful voices in Australian music, Kate Ceberano is set to embark on another epic tour across regional Australia in June, July and August 2025.
The Australian Made Tour will highlight the biggest hits of Kate’s platinum catalogue - alongside some of Australia’s most iconic anthems: a heartfelt tribute to the songs and artists that have helped shape and inspire her extraordinary career.
From her own band I’m Talking to Divinyls, Models, INXS, Mentals, Jimmy Barnes, Sia, Icehouse, Silverchair, John Farnham, Australian Crawl, Bernard Fanning, Jimmy Little, The Church, Renee Geyer, Paul Kelly and more, Kate is preparing to bring her own magnetic spin to the great Australian songbook.
“It’s so important for me to express my culture, my Australia, in song. This is a love letter to the artists, bands, audiences and storytellers who I’ve travelled with over this vast continent for four decades, a deep dive into what makes ME an Australian artist: my hungry heart holding their words to my chest, making them the soundtrack to my life.”
The Australian Made Tour will be both a personal reflection and a gesture of shared national nostalgia, an invitation to feel the pulse of Australian music history through the eyes of one of its most enduring and celebrated voices.
Tickets to all shows are available from March 12 at www.kateceberano.com
The tour’s title invokes a full-circle moment for Kate. She was just 20 when she stepped onto the stage with I’m Talking as part of the legendary original Australian Made tour of 1986/87, sharing the bill with INXS, Jimmy Barnes, Models and Divinyls during a defining era in Australian music.
Now, nearly four decades later, Kate will offer a storytelling experience rich with unfiltered backstage tales, rock’n’roll mythology and the kind of raw, untamed energy that defined Australian music before social media stripped it of its mystery. Expect stories of stolen kisses and wild nights, of moments captured only in memory, not on a phone screen.
Kate will be joined on all 22 stops by two powerhouse musicians: guitarist/ producer Harts and, on her first national tour of her own work, the prodigiously talented Kathleen Halloran. The handpicked line-up promises to shift seamlessly between eras and influences like a radio dial spinning through time.
2025 BIOGRAPHY // Kate Ceberano
Kate Ceberano has forged a unique presence among the true legends of Australian music in a career spanning five decades: a commanding personality, an electrifying performer and a peerless voice that defies time, fashion and genre.
Her 11 platinum and 8 gold albums, 10 Top 10 albums, 15 Top 40 singles, 3 Countdown awards, 5 ARIA awards from 20 nominations (9 for Best Female Artist) and more than 6,000 live performances only begin to attest to her unassailable impact on the Australian stage.
In 2025, Kate’s Australian Made Tour builds on the momentum of two sold-out national tours — the epic orchestral My Life Is A Symphony in 2023, Superstars Live with Jon Stevens in 2024 — to celebrate her own platinum catalogue alongside classic Australian songs that helped shape and inspire her extraordinary career.
It was the original Australian Made tour of 1987 with INXS, Jimmy Barnes, Divinyls, Models and more that first brought Kate’s jaw-dropping voice to national attention on the heels of Bear Witness, the platinum debut by her early band I’m Talking.
Her vast subsequent legacy includes a record-breaking run with John Farnham in Jesus Christ Superstar, a triple platinum solo pop debut, Brave, a platinum jazz album, You’ve Always Got The Blues, her 2014 induction into the Australian Songwriters’ Hall of Fame and countless triumphs spanning jazz, pop , rock and beyond. Her acclaim as an exhibiting painter has just begun, while her second memoir, UNSUNG: A Compendium of Creativity, landed in ’23.
Singer, songwriter, author, artist and spokeswoman for generations of self-empowered artists defining their own ground on their own terms, Kate is a force of nature, Australian entertainment royalty and a bona fide national treasure.
