Some of the most iconic names in Australian music will come together when the Red Hot Summer Tour returns in 2023.
The festival’s all-Australian line-up has been unveiled today, and features Paul Kelly, Bernard Fanning, Missy Higgins, Mark Seymour, Vika & Linda and Ian Moss.
The tour will visit Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales, Tasmania and Queensland, and includes a stop on the Gold Coast at Broadwater Parklands on Saturday 22 April, 2023.
Paul Kelly said he was really looking forward to the tour.
“The last two years have brought home how precious live music is. To us and to those who come. We need each other. We’re going to bring it, give our all and play each show as if it’s our last. Because you never know what’s around the corner,” he said.

Bernard Fanning said he can’t wait to get back on the road to do some ‘proper’ touring after almost three years of ‘dribs and drabs and disruption’.
“A lot of the towns on this run I have never played before in 30 years of touring, so I can’t wait to get out there and play stuff from right across my career,” he said.
Tour promoter Duane McDonald said they are so excited about the line-up and the regions the tour will be visiting.
“The amount of hits produced by these artists is incredible. The tour has always been about taking great music to the regions, and supporting phenomenal Australian artists. We are so grateful to be able to continue to do this, and to share these experiences with all the music fans who continue to turn out year after year. We look forward to seeing everyone this summer,” he said.
