Cher is the first artist to have a #1 hit on the Billboard charts in every decade from the 1960s to the 2010s and is the recipient of Oscar, Emmy, Golden Globe, Grammy, ECHO, Ivor Novello, ASCAP, CFDA, and GLAAD awards. Last year she was honoured with the prestigious Icon Award by Billboard.
Today, Cher has announced her first Australian tour in 13 years!
Following the amazing response to her March visit to celebrate the 40th Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, Cher is returning Down Under after a 13-year absence. Fans need only wait just few months longer before the award-winning actress and recording artist will perform arena spectaculars this September and October.
Cher says: “My visit to Sydney’s Mardi Gras reminded me how unique and beautiful Australia is. It’s been 13 years since I toured there so I thought “let’s do it one more time”.
Expanding on her ecstatically-received appearance and show-stopping 20-minute set at this year’s Mardi Gras and Party, fans can expect to be dazzled by Cher’s renowned lavish and flamboyant costumes and elaborate stage production, while revelling in a more than 90-minute performance of hits and classics such as: “Believe”, “If I Could Turn Back Time”, “Strong Enough”, “I Found Someone”, “Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves”, as well as going all the way back to where it began, with “I Got You Babe”.
Cher last toured Australia in 2005 when she performed 12 sold-out arena shows as part of her three-year Farewell Tour, which played to more than three million fans worldwide and remains one of the most successful concert tours in history.
