Drake will perform in Sydney, Melbourne and Gold Coast next February.
The certified lover boy himself, Drizzy Drake, has confirmed he’s touring Australia in 2025.
After several weeks of internet rumours, the 6 God has let the cat out of the bag while on a live stream with Canadian streamer xQc. In a wide-ranging chat, Drake revealed he plans on heading our way next April for the first time in eight years.
“February 9th, for anybody that’s watching from Australia, I’m coming back to Australia for the first time in eight years,” Drake said.
Named the Anita Max Wynn Tour, Drake announced he will perform in Sydney, Melbourne and Gold Coast, with Adelaide sadly missing out once again.
Drake also mentioned the tour, which as mentioned above, kicks off February 9, will continue until early March, meaning there’s plenty of time for Drake to add extra dates once the tour is officially announced by the promoter.
During the livestream, Drake also said he loved Australia but hasn’t been back in such a long time due to the time it takes to travel there.

It’s been an interesting 12 months for Drake, who became embroiled in a war of words with Kendrick Lamar earlier this year. The duo traded barbs on wax for several weeks, with Kendrick proclaimed the winner after dropping ‘Not Like Us’, which topped the US Billboard 100 Chart.
But Drizzy doesn’t seem to be bothered, telling xQc: “I'm here, fully intact. Mind, body and soul… You need facts to take me out, fairytales won't do it.”
Elsewhere in the stream, Drake talked about his collaborative album with PARTYNEXTDOOR which he claimed is 75% complete.
“Me and Party's album is 75% done shout out to PX cooking right now,” he said. “Album sounds incredible...This album is good; it's the sound that people know and love us for.”
This is an evolving story and we will update when official tour dates are announced.
