Good news: ROBBIE WILLIAMS will return to Australia in November 2023. That’s right folks, one our all time fave headline acts will take the stage across the country in a series of special event dates which have been announced by Roundhouse Entertainment, Mellen Events, Chugg Entertainment and Frontier Touring. Last on tour in Australia and New Zealand in 2018 onThe Heavy Entertainment Show World Tour and more recently, performing two exclusive nights in Melbourne for his Better Man biopic, Robbie is raring to deliver his live show to some of his favourite cities down under in 2023. This event may contain sequences of flashing lights, laser, strobe, haze and pyrotechnics which may affect guests who are susceptible to photo sensitivities and medical conditions. A showman to the very end, Take That favourite turned solo artist Robbie Williams really knows how to put on a show. An artist with an impossible amount of hits, the real genius is moulding a live show that both satisfies his artistry as well as his loyal fan base. A truly entertaining performance. A mix of songs, chatting and jokes. Some people were disappointed Rob didn't do more of his big hits and did some covers, but he is a showman and this was HIS show.

After leaving the band, Williams befriended Oasis, joining in with the drug-fueled parties that came along with their success, This lifestyle took its toll, with Williams becoming increasingly overweight and the subject of much discussion in tabloid gossip columns, distracting Williams from focusing on his own music. In 1996, he released his first single, a cover of George Michael's "Freedom '90," which was largely a disaster. However, his second single, "Old Before I Die" in 1997 showed more promise, displaying a prominent Oasis influence. His debut album arrived the same year, "Life Thru a Lens," finding huge success in the UK. This was followed by the multi-Platinum release, "I've Been Expecting You," in 1998, establishing Williams' solo career. He did himself proud. If you're a Robbie fan and can afford to, treat yourself to a slice of Robbie and a slice of Vegas. Australia is one of my favourite places in the world to tour,” says Robbie. “I feel so at home there and hugely appreciate the warm, loving welcome I always receive. I can't wait to do these shows in 2023 and spend some time with my fans.” The tour will showcase Robbie's latest album, XXV that features many of his greatest hits and fan favourites, all re-recorded and newly orchestrated with the Metropole Orkest. Note: Buses replace trains on sections of the Hurstbridge, Cranbourne, Pakenham, Frankston, and Sunbury lines at various times during this period.Opening with two nights at London’s The O2, the autumn arena tour will be a joyous celebration of Robbie’s 25 years as a solo artist. The tour will then take in Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow and Dublin. The experience of meeting Robbie was unique!! He greeted me, hugged me, I could talk to him a little and then the photo. And because of this photo I'm still annoyed today! It was supposedly a professional photographer!? Allegedly!!? It’s been a remarkable time for the iconic, Brit pop-star who will perform for audiences in Mount Cotton, QLD at Sirromet Wines, Geelong, VIC at Mt Duneed Estate and Swan Valley, WA at Nikola Estate. One cannot doubt the larger than life ambition of Robbie Williams in his creative vision for this show. He undoubtedly tried to incorporate a lot but in doing so, he may have inadvertently eschewed the primary aspect of his career – his own hits. With a musical legacy spanning over 11 albums as a solo artist (and fifteen albums including the ones with Take That), he was never going to be in a position to do justice to all of it. That being said, he may have gone too far the other way with a covers-heavy setlist. In my humble opinion, that might have been a miscalculation in the context of an artist trying to reacquaint himself with American audiences. His legacy has been largely built off his own hits as opposed to those of others. This might be my only criticism (albeit a rather significant one) of the concert. It is not too far in the distant past that Las Vegas concert residencies were associated with fading pop stars that were way past their commercial prime. More often than not, the artists that gravitated to Las Vegas concert residencies had enjoyed their fair share of the limelight in America’s musical mainstream. Many attribute the dramatic shift in perception for these shows to Celine Dion (with specific regard to her “A New Day” tour). The tour featured theatrical performances and imbibed the spirit of glitz and excess that Las Vegas is often characterized by. Since then, artists such as Elton John, Britney Spears, and Jennifer Lopez have carried on this tradition with immense success. The newest twist to the history of Las Vegas residencies is one that British pop superstar Robbie Williams just might be the catalyst for.

Australia is one of my favourite places in the world to tour,” says Robbie. “I feel so at home there and hugely appreciate the warm, loving welcome I always receive. I can’t wait to do these shows in 2023 and spend some time with my fans.”

Disputes, however, broke out between rival tribes and the Mission moved to Meeanee and re-established its vineyards in 1858. Whether it be by car, public transport, taxi or rideshare, there are several options for your journey to the venue. Nestled against the quiet and picturesque foothills of Greenmeadows on the outskirts of Napier is New Zealand’s only nineteenth century winery – The Mission Vineyards.

When you’re at a Robbie Williams concert, one thing that you’ll notice straight away is how varied the crowd is. The first time I saw Robbie Williams live was when I was nine years old, at Milton Keynes Bowl. To enter the stage, he descended from the sky on a wire. Suffice to say, I was already mesmerised. His opening song, - the classic - "Let Me Entertain You," couldn’t have been more fitting. His performance was full of life as he paraded the stage exuding more and more confidence with every breath. Never before has a Mexican wave filled me with such joy as when conducted by Robbie himself. With the crowd in the palm of his hands, he ran through classics like "Kids" and "Angel," then recently released songs like "Let Love Be Your Energy" and "Better Man," and even did a couple of covers – he did a cover of Wings’ "Live and Let Die" boldly early on his set, and the crowd love it, especially my mum! Eleven years on, seeing Robbie Williams at the O2 Arena London, I was no less disappointed. He didn’t appear miraculously from the sky, but he was still greeted by thousands like a God. Performer to the masses, for the masses, his rendition of "Be a Boy" spoke wonders – there, my idol of nine years old sang, wearing a huge gold crown, as powerful ever.Mission Concert producer James Erskine, Chairman of Sports and Entertainment Limited, says he’s delighted with the response from New Zealanders to attend the world’s biggest winery concert. Robbie Williams is without doubt one of the finest male pop stars of his generation, having sold over 85 million albums, 13 UK number one albums (the most for any solo artist, equalled only by Elvis Presley) and 14 number one singles as a solo artist.
