- **Event Name**: Garbage
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 11 Dec, 2025 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce the long-awaited return of the alt rock icons Garbage to Australia and New Zealand this December, with four electrifying shows for Auckland, Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney. Standing among the most influential alternative rock bands of modern times, the band – Shirley Manson, Duke Erikson, Steve Market &amp; Butch Vig – are true pioneers, selling over 20 million albums and responsible for a catalogue of era-defining hits. These summer shows will be the Garbage’s first Australian headline performances since 2016, and the band’s first appearance in Auckland since 2013!

Performing in ornate theatres in each city, including a tour closing night onstage in the Concert Hall at the iconic Sydney Opera House, these shows are a must for long-time Garbage fans. Garbage return in celebration of their highly acclaimed eighth studio album, Let All That We Imagine Be The Light (out now via BMG). Since its release in May 2025, the band have been hitting the road, currently midway through their first North American headline tour in a decade, which began in early September. In November, they’ll head to Mexico before closing out their US run with a final Los Angeles show, ahead of their long-awaited return to Australia and New Zealand. 

Says Manson, “To be able to return to sacred, stunning New Zealand and to Australia – the home country of our most beloved music business guru, Michael Gudinski – is an immense thrill for us as a band. We have been aching to return to this part of the world for a long time now and this tour will be played every night in Gudinski’s honour.”

Formed in Madison, Wisconsin, Garbage released their self-titled debut back in 1995 – an album that shot to #1 on the NZ Album Chart, #4 in Australia, and went 2x Platinum in both countries. What followed was three decades of era-defining records and chart-topping singles, including ‘Only Happy When It Rains’, ‘Stupid Girl’, ‘When I Grow Up’, ‘No Gods No Masters’, ‘I Think I’m Paranoid’, ‘Vow’ and countless more. Now, the band continue to evolve, as heard on latest single ‘There’s No Future In Optimism’.

Do not miss these special shows: a joyous, electrifying celebration of the band that defined a generation.
