TISM
Wednesday 21 October 2026
7.30pm
Following the success of their acclaimed concerts at the Sydney Opera House and Melbourne’s PICA, TISM have agreed to headline their first national tour in over 30 years.
Because TISM wants all your money, they will entice you to come to every show on the tour by playing a radically different selection of fan favourites each night. Plus all the other weird sh*t that goes on at a TISM show.
One of Australia’s most influential and enduring bands, TISM have spent decades forging a reputation for their genre-blurring, boundary-smashing, sarcasm-wielding (and entirely anonymous) antics. Emerging in the late 80s, the balaclava-clad group have explored dance, pop, rock and caustic wit amongst other musical delights, spanning seven studio albums, countless award nominations and two ARIA Award wins, millions of streams, and a reputation for blistering live performances.
Equal measures of joy and chaos, a TISM concert has to be witnessed to be believed. Don’t miss the unique opportunity to catch this most idiosyncratic of Australian bands at their peak.
