It’s about to be anarchy in Australia and New Zealand as seminal punk band Sex Pistols have announced a special tour of the two countries. 

Sex Pistols members Paul Cook, Steve Jones, and Glen Matlock will be joined by Frank Carter for shows in Auckland, Christchurch, Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, and Fremantle this April (see full dates below).

The four-piece will perform the classic Sex Pistols album Never Mind the Bollocks… (1977) in full. They previously played three nights of fundraising for West London’s iconic Bush Hall.

Tickets to the Australia and New Zealand tour go on sale to the general public on Thursday, January 23rd at 11am local time. The My Live Nation members pre-sale begins on Wednesday, January 22nd at 11am local time, while the partner pre-sale begins on Tuesday, January 21st at 11am local time.

It’s set to be a tour not to be missed. Sex Pistols were last on these shores nearly 30 years ago, while their recent Bush Hall fundraising shows drew positive reviews from critics.

“The most glorious sight in a beautiful music hall in west London is of a band, at last, regaining its liberty” Kerrang! wrote. “The group performs with the tightness and chemistry of a band that have been playing together for years…. Sex Pistols are fuckin’ back,” hailed CLASH.
