The iconic pop superstar has announced six shows across the country kicking off April 2025.

Legendary pop singer Cyndi Lauper is heading our way in 2025, bringing her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour to six capital cities next April.

Lauper was last in Australia supporting Rod Stewart in 2023, with her upcoming tour arriving as the ‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’ singer calls time on her near five-decade-long career.

The iconic performer is bringing along Aussie favourites The Veronicas, who are stoked to be part of the tour. Taking to Instagram to reveal their involvement, the Origliasso sisters commented: “WHEN THE QUEEN CALLS - YOU ANSWER!! ☎️👑 We are joining the ICONIC Cyndi Lauper on her Australian ‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’ Farewell Tour in April 2025! This is going to be FUN.”

The Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour begins in Melbourne at Rod Laver Arena on Wednesday, April 2 and continues at Brisbane’s Entertainment Centre on Saturday, April 5, Newcastle’s Entertainment Centre on Monday, April 7 and Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Tuesday, April 8. Lauper then pops down to Adelaide for a performance at the Entertainment Centre on Thursday, April 10 before bringing the tour to a close at Perth’s RAC Arena on Saturday, April 12.

The Telstra Plus and Artist pre-sales commence this Friday, October 18 at 11:30am and run until 11:30am on Tuesday, October 22. Next up is the TEG Dainty and My Ticketek pre-sales running from 12:30am on Tuesday, October 22 until 12:30pm on Wednesday, October 23. General sale tickets are finally available from 1:30pm on Wednesday, October 23.

Cyndi Lauper’s world tour kicks off this week in Montreal, with the 80s hitmaker performing across North America throughout November and December. Lauper then takes a short break before embarking on the European leg of her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour in February, making her final Australian appearance in April 2025.

The two-time Grammy Award winner rose to prominence after the release of her 1983 debut album, She’s So Unusual. The record was the first debut album by a female artist to achieve four top five hits (‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’, ‘Time After Time’, ‘She Bop’ and ‘All Through the Night’) on the Billboard Hot 100.

Along with her musical pursuits, Lauper has been an advocate for women’s rights and a supporter of the LGBTQIA+ community over the years.

Lauper’s Australian tour is the final chance for music fans to catch the colourful singer live and her Adeladie show promises to be an incredible night of live music not to be missed.

Catch Cyndi Lauper at Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Thursday, April 10. For full ticketing information visit cyndilauper.com.
