kesha

BRISBANE, 21 February 2026 – Pop icon Kesha has officially touched down in Australia, kicking off the highly anticipated “Tits Out Tour” with a high-energy opening night in Brisbane. The singer, who recently celebrated the 15th anniversary of her debut album Animal, is currently traversing the globe in support of her latest studio effort, . (Period), released in July 2025.

Australian Tour Kick-off and Recent Performances

Kesha’s return to the Australian stage has been met with overwhelming demand. Following the Brisbane opener, where she was joined on stage by Halsey and The Veronicas for a surprise collaboration, the singer is set to perform in Melbourne tomorrow, 22 February. Due to tickets selling out in under 30 minutes last year, the Melbourne venue was upgraded to accommodate her growing “Animals” fanbase.

The tour setlist spans her entire six-album discography, beginning with her 2009 breakout hit “Tik Tok.” Fans have noted her continued use of altered lyrics in “Tik Tok” to distance the track from P. Diddy, a change she has maintained in live performances since late 2023. Following the Melbourne show, Kesha will head to the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on 24 February before concluding the Australian leg at Perth’s HPC on 26 February.

Global Tour Dates and Festivals

After her stint in Oceania, Kesha will head to Europe and the United Kingdom. Notable upcoming dates include a massive show at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow on 11 March 2026 and a performance at AFAS Live in Amsterdam. Looking further ahead into the northern summer, Kesha is slated to headline the All Things Go Music Festival in Toronto on 6 June 2026, sharing the bill with Lorde and Wet Leg.

Career Milestones and Discography

Kesha Rose Sebert first rose to international fame in 2009. Since then, she has earned two number-one albums in the United States and multiple Grammy nominations. Her career took a significant turn following a decade-long legal battle with producer Dr. Luke, which was officially settled in June 2023. Since gaining her independence, she has been described by critics as “reclaimed and reborn,” focusing on themes of liberation and self-celebration.
