Icehouse is entering the Coliseum.

Iva Davies’ ARIA Hall of Fame-inducted new wave group will play the Coliseum Theatre on Saturday, Aug. 23rd, their only stop this year in Western Sydney. Northern Beaches band Rolling Holy will open the show as special guests.

The general ticket on sale starts from from 10.00am AEST on Wednesday, March 26th at Ticketek.

On the night, expect a feast of hits plucked from Icehouse’s 45-year career.

“Last September we played at the Coliseum Theatre for the first time and it was a wonderful night,” comments Davies, “the audience singing along with us to every song was a major thrill for the band and me while the excellent sound of the theatre and the helpful staff made the evening truly memorable.”

So, he continues, “after having only been playing large outdoor shows this year, we’re looking forward to going indoors and playing at The Coliseum again for this special event on August 23rd.”

Formed by Davies, initially as Flowers, Icehouse was one of Australia’s most successful acts of the 1980s and 1990s.

All told, the group has landed eight ARIA Top 10 albums and upwards of 30 ARIA Top 40 singles, including classics “Great Southern Land”, “Electric Blue”, “Crazy”, “Hey Little Girl”, “Street Café”, “No Promises”, “We Can Get Together” and more.

Icehouse also crashed the charts in the US and UK, and were elevated into the ARIA Hall of Fame during a ceremony in 2006. Global album sales top 9 million.

Icehouse is currently headlining the Red Hot Summer Tour 2025, topping a bill that includes Noiseworks, Wolfmother, Eskimo Joe, Baby Animals and more. The final date on that run is this Saturday, March 22nd at Sandalford Wines, Swan Valley.

Looking ahead, “the band and I look forward to experiencing the intimate and powerful energy of The Coliseum’s audience once more,” Davies adds. “It’s going to be a night to remember and we can’t wait to share it with everyone who
joins us. See you there.”
