Tea & Sympathy 20th Anniversary Tour :: Canberra :: Tue 24 March 2026

Bernard Fanning - Tea & Sympathy 20th Anniversary Tour
with special guests Sam Cromack & Georgia Mooney.
Bernard Fanning, is taking his celebration of 20 years of Tea & Sympathy around Australia in February and March 2026, playing all the songs from the album and more.
The tour follows the sold out anniversary show at QPAC in Brisbane where Fanning will perform Tea & Sympathy in full for the first time in twenty years, and today’s release of 20th Anniversary editions of the album. Tonight’s QPAC show sold out within two minutes of tickets going on sale and fans are encouraged to be quick to make sure they don’t miss out.
Joining Bernard will be his special guests Sam Cromack* (Ball Park Music) and Georgia Mooney (All Our Exes Live in Texas). ** Bob Evans will also be joining the line up for the Perth show.
Bernard said, “It’s such a privilege to have made a record that people connected with on such a deep, personal level. I have had so many people tell me that it changed their lives. As an artist that is one of the things that you hope for. Playing these songs live has always been a communal experience, with the audience sharing in both the intimacy and the full-throated sing-along glory of the songs.
He added “It’s such a joy to be taking another lap around our country to play Tea & Sympathy again. We’ve got most of the original band back together and can’t wait to play this record front to back in some of the country’s most iconic venues. Having Sam and Georgia along just triples the fun”
All shows will be all ages with those under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or responsible adult.
General public tickets will go on sale at 12.00pm (local times) on Wednesday, 5 November.
