British folk-rock giants Mumford & Sons have expanded their highly anticipated 2026 tour after overwhelming presale demand prompted the addition of a second Melbourne show. Fans responded in massive numbers during the presale period, quickly filling allocations and pushing organizers to open an extra date to accommodate the surge of interest.
The newly added performance will take place on Friday, 24 April, at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena, joining the previously announced show scheduled for Saturday, 25 April at the same venue. With two back-to-back nights now confirmed, Melbourne audiences will have double the opportunity to experience the band’s powerful live show, known for its emotional intensity, multi-instrumental energy, and soaring crowd anthems.
Tickets for all tour dates officially go on sale today at 11am (local time) through the Secret Sounds website.
In addition to the Melbourne concerts, Mumford & Sons will bring their tour to fans across Australia and New Zealand, with performances set for Sydney and Auckland:
- Wed 29 Apr – Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney
- Sat 2 May – Spark Arena, Auckland
The tour marks a major return to the region for the Grammy-winning group, whose live performances have earned them global acclaim and a devoted international fanbase. With renewed momentum and an ever-evolving sound, the band is expected to deliver a setlist blending beloved classics with their latest musical explorations.
Given the high demand seen during the presale, fans are encouraged to secure their tickets promptly once sales open. All tickets will be available through: scrtsnds.com.au/MumfordTix26.
Mumford & Sons continue to prove their enduring appeal, and the addition of a second Melbourne date further underscores the excitement surrounding their upcoming shows.
