From putting out pub anthems like ‘Summer of ’69’ and ‘Run To You’, to soundtracking weddings with love songs ‘(Everything I Do) I Do It For You’ and ‘Heaven’, and shaping childhoods with taking on the Spirit soundtrack, Bryan Adams has done about everything and received recognition for his music efforts. His impressive list of accolades includes GRAMMY for Best Rock Performance (with 16 nominations), not to mention nominations for three Academy Awards and five Golden Globe, American Music Awards, and a Companion of the Order of Canada. He has duetted with icons Tina Turner, Sting, Rod Stewart, and Mel C.
He is set to bring all of these gems down under for the So Happy It Hurts AU/NZ arena tour in 2025. The So Happy It Hurts AU/NZ arena tour begins with two shows in Christchurch and Auckland, followed by performances in Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Brisbane.
Joining Adams as special guest on all shows – and his first time performing in AU/NZ – is English singer and songwriter James Arthur. One of the world’s biggest streaming artists, Arthur has over 40 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone, and recently scored the #1 spot on the UK Album charts with 2024 release Bitter Sweet Love. Arthur first broke through with 2016’s ‘Say You Won’t Let Go’, officially the UK’s most streamed song that year. Other hit singles include: ‘Impossible’, ‘Can I Be Him’, ‘Sun Comes Up’, ‘Naked’, ‘Empty Space’, ‘Rewrite The Stars’, ‘Falling Like the Stars’, ‘Train Wreck’, and ‘Lasting Lover’, all certified Platinum.
Combined the two are set to electrify audiences, bringing on both tears and cheers across their diverse catalogues.
