Kesha has announced she will be returning to Australia for a run of headline dates in support of her new album, . (Period).
Part of her wider T–ts Out Tour, the four-date trek of the country will see Kesha performing headline dates in the Australian capital cities of Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth in late February, 2026.
Notably, the announced run does not include a stop in Sydney, though her visit to Australia coincides with the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. No announcement as to Kesha’s potential involvement in the festivities has been released, however.

The upcoming shows will be the musician’s first in the country since an appearance at the Australian Open in Melbourne in January, which was coupled with her House of Kesha event in Sydney. Previously, she had also performed as part of the Sydney Mardi Gras in early 2020.
The tour has been marketed as Kesha’s first headline tour of Australia in over a decade, seemingly referring to her previous visit as part of the Get Sleazy Tour. This, however, appears to overlook her rescheduled 2018 visit for the Rainbow Tour.
The announcement of these new dates comes just weeks after Kesha officially released her sixth album, . (Period), which also marks her first record as an independent artist.
Prior to the arrival of . (Period), Kesha has been under contract to Kemosabe Records, despite her yearslong legal battle with label owner Dr. Luke, whom she accused of drugging her and raping her at a 2005 party in 2014. The producer has always vehemently denied the allegations, and the two parties reached a settlement in 2023 before Kesha was released from her deal with Kemosabe in March 2024.
“I really do feel like it’s been a homecoming in a lot of ways — not only legally, to the rights of my voice, but to letting go of that internalized shame, of letting all that go and coming home to my own body, my joy, myself,” Kesha told Billboard recently.
“And part of that has been healing my relationship with the records that I’ve put out that were difficult to make — that were perceived in a way that wasn’t the way I intended, that were tied to events that I don’t stand for.”
Arriving on July 4, the LP debuted atop the Top Album Sales chart, reached No. 3 on the Independent Albums chart and hit No. 17 on the overall Billboard 200.
