Rock and roll icon Lenny Kravitz has officially touched down in Sydney, sending his legion of Australian fans into a state of high excitement as he prepares to launch his long-awaited tour down under.
A Rock Star Arrival
The 61-year-old music legend was spotted arriving at the airport on Sunday, embodying his signature rocker style. He stepped out in a black leather jacket layered over a blue-and-black striped crochet tank top that showcased his famously enviable physique. Completing the iconic look were aviator sunglasses, stacks of silver bangles, and his signature dreadlocks flowing past his shoulders.
Displaying his trademark charm for awaiting fans, the American superstar flashed a peace sign with his fingers as he moved through the terminal. He finished the effortlessly cool ensemble with vintage-wash jeans, a chunky statement belt, and well-worn boots, radiating an unmistakable old-school vibe.
The Blue Electric Light Tour Hits Australia
Kravitz's arrival marks the beginning of a whirlwind run of sold-out arena shows across the country. The Australian leg of his Blue Electric Light world tour is set to commence on November 18 at Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena.
The tour will see the Grammy-winning artist perform across the east coast, with stops in:
- Newcastle
- Brisbane
- Melbourne
- A huge outdoor concert in Mildura
Australian rock favourites Jet will be joining him as the support act for these highly anticipated dates. The tour will wrap up on November 29 at the bp Adelaide Grand Final Supercars event.
A Nostalgic Setlist and Major Milestone
This tour serves a dual purpose: celebrating his 12th studio album, Blue Electric Light, and honouring more than three decades of chart-topping hits. Fans can expect a setlist packed with beloved classics, including anthems like Fly Away, American Woman, It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over, and Believe.
Insiders suggest Kravitz has been meticulously fine-tuning the show to deliver a full nostalgia trip. There are strong hints that the rocker may even revisit tracks from his 1995 album Circus to mark its 30th anniversary, potentially treating diehard fans to a live performance of the legendary opener Rock and Roll Is Dead.
This tour is a significant event, marking Kravitz's first return to Australian stages since 2012. His inaugural visit was in 1994, making this run a milestone moment for fans who have followed his career across five decades, four Grammy wins, and nearly 40 million album sales worldwide. He maintains a huge fanbase in Australia, where his 1993 single Are You Gonna Go My Way? reached number one on the ARIA charts.
