Arthur Hill upgrades to bigger Australian venues for January debut – Backseat Mafia

London’s Arthur Hill is levelling up before he even sets foot on Australian soil. The 24-year-old songwriter’s first run of headline dates — the Stella AusTour — has already outgrown its original venues, forcing a shift to bigger rooms in January.

Hill will now open his Australian account at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall (Jan 14), before heading to Sydney’s Enmore Theatre (Jan 15) and Melbourne’s Forum (Jan 16). All previously purchased tickets remain valid. New allocations are on sale today via Secret Sounds.

The move caps off a breakout 2025 that’s seen Hill graduate from buzzy newcomer to genuine festival fixture. Across the UK circuit — Boardmasters, Latitude, TRNSMT, Isle of Wight, Live at Leeds — his set has become shorthand for youthful adrenaline and crowd-wide singalongs. His debut EP In The Middle Of Somewhere landed earlier this year, led by the viral “Hey Arthur!”, which has clocked more than four million Spotify streams.

Hill’s live arsenal now includes “Appetite”, “Lily” and his most recent single “Man In The Middle”, a synth-drenched cut soaked in nostalgia and bare-knuckle honesty. With a sold-out UK/EU tour about to kick off, Australia will be getting him at full tilt — a show honed in front of thousands, delivered with the giddy energy of an artist who’s still only just getting started.
