“Melbourne! I’m overwhelmed by all the love from you so far, so am adding a second date to The Show Live On Tour 2024 at Rod Laver Arena,” Niall says“I have said it many times, but I do mean it when I say that the times I have spent down under are some of the best periods of my life…

“I have had amazing shows in Australia and New Zealand, and I cannot wait to be back in 2024. My favourite thing in the world is being on tour. Performing my songs for my fans and sharing those incredible moments together are the reason why I write music in the first place. This is going to be my best tour yet and I cannot wait to see all you ‘lovers’ in 2024.”

Originally from Mullingar, Ireland, Horan has sold over 80 million records and toured the globe multiple times as part of the iconic One Direction.
