Frontier Touring will bring Lorde's Ultrasound World Tour to her home country, New Zealand and Australia in February 2026. The six-date run will be the pop star's first New Zealand and Australian shows since 2023’s Solar Power Tour. The tour kicks off in New Zealand at Spark Arena, Auckland on February 11th, followed by a show at Wolfbrook Arena, Christchurch on February 13th. The tour then makes its way to Australia, starting on the east coast at Brisbane Entertainment Centre on February 16th, Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney on February 18th, Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne on February 21st, before heading west for a final show at RAC Arena, Perth on February 25th.

Lorde’s global critically acclaimed fourth studio album Virgin, out now via EMI Music Australia/Universal Music New Zealand, has just made her triumphant return to No. 1 on the Aotearoa Music Charts in New Zealand, Australia's ARIA Albums Chart, the Official Albums Chart in the UK, and No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in the US. Co-produced by Lorde, Jim-E Stack and Dan Nigro, Virgin represents a bold sonic evolution that balances maximalist production with her signature lyrical intimacy across 11 tracks, capturing the phosphorescence that has always defined her artistry.
Embarking on her biggest tour to date, the Ultrasound World Tour will kick off on September 17th in Austin, Texas and has already sold out multiple nights at iconic venues including New York City's Madison Square Garden, London's O2 Arena, among others.
