ARIA Award-winning artist Illy is bringing his genre-blending sound to Newcastle this August as part of his massive Good-er Life regional tour off the back of his #1 ARIA Australian album Good Life.

This marks a high-energy return to the region for Illy, who is riding the wave of a sold-out capital city run and the release of the Good Life (Deluxe Edition).

Fans can expect an electric mix of the album’s heavy hitters – including Kids and Good Life – along with a stack of new additions like Free Hand and the acoustic version of crowd favourites.

Known for seamlessly blending pop hooks with hip hop punch, Illy is bringing a fine-tuned live show to town.

He’s called this current touring mode the most locked-in his team has been in years – a high bar from a performer who’s played Splendour, Falls and topped the ARIA charts multiple times.

The Newcastle stop is part of a 27-date sprint through regional Australia, hitting venues across six states and territories. It’s a rare opportunity for local fans to see the platinum-selling artist up close and on form.

The Good-er Life tour lands at King Street Bandroom on Friday, 15 August 2025. With Illy’s last run hailed as life-affirming by the artist himself, this is one not to miss. Grab your tickets now.
