Kate Ceberano is bringing her Australian Made Tour to Geelong, Bendigo, Ballarat

words by staff writer

After four decades on the road, countless stories untold, and a voice that can stop you in your tracks, the Aussie icon is taking her legendary music to regional towns across the country.

The tour isn’t just a stroll down memory lane—it’s a celebration of Kate’s platinum hits and a love letter to some of the most iconic tunes that shaped Australian music. She’ll be diving into her own back catalogue, of course, but expect to hear renditions of songs by the likes of INXS, Jimmy Barnes, Sia, Icehouse, Paul Kelly, and more. It’s a collection of the songs that have defined Kate’s extraordinary career and Australian music itself.

Kate says it best: “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.” She’s not just singing songs; she’s making them hers, letting the heart of Australian music beat in every note.

But it’s not just about the tunes—it’s the stories too. From her early days with I’m Talking to her collaborations with everyone from Divinyls and Models to Jimmy Barnes and Sia, Kate’s got a treasure trove of wild, rock’n’roll tales. Think stolen kisses, wild nights, and memories that are firmly locked away in her heart.

The Australian Made Tour is a chance to dive into the deep pulse of Australia’s musical history through the eyes of one of its most enduring stars. Kate’s giving fans a front-row seat to her journey, all while keeping the spirit of Aussie rock’n’roll alive, raw, and untamed—just like the good ol’ days before social media made everything too polished.

The tour’s name? A full-circle moment for Kate. Back in 1986, at just 20 years old, she took the stage with I’m Talking on the original Australian Made tour. Nearly 40 years later, she’s returning to her roots, this time as the headliner, offering fans a glimpse into the untold stories of a music legend.

Joining Kate on the road will be two powerhouse musicians: guitarist and producer Harts, and the incredibly talented Kathleen Halloran, who’s embarking on her very first national tour with her own work. The lineup promises a journey through time as they effortlessly weave together eras, influences, and the kind of magic only live music can bring.

Time to celebrate the heart and soul of Australian music with Kate Ceberano. Don’t miss it!
