British music icon Sir Cliff Richard announced his highly anticipated live tour for Australia and New Zealand 2025. These shows offer a rare chance to witness one of Britain’s most celebrated performers in a live setting.
Next year will mark 12 years since Australian and New Zealand audiences have seen Cliff Richard live in concert, with the tour beginning in Perth, before making it's way to the East Coast, and then onto New Zealand. Fans will be treated to a setlist packed with timeless classics, including hits such as "Living Doll," "We Don’t Talk Anymore," "Devil Woman," and many more. Known for his energy, charisma, and enduring stage presence, Sir Cliff continues to capture hearts and inspire audiences as he has done across the eight decades.
As one of the greatest hitmakers in British music history, Cliff Richard has sold in excess of 250 million records worldwide, securing his place among the best-selling artists of all time. He remains the only artist to achieve UK Top 5 albums across eight consecutive decades, a remarkable feat recognised by the Official Charts Company.

Beyond his musical achievements, Sir Cliff is widely admired for his charitable work, which earned him a knighthood in 1995—the first pop star ever to receive such an honour. His unwavering dedication to philanthropy and his lasting connection with fans worldwide has made him a beloved figure in British culture.
These 2025 performances offer fans a rare opportunity to see one of music’s all-time greats in concert at the age of 85. These shows are set to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
