An exclusive fan pre-sale for tickets and limited VIP packages began Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. local time for members of the band’s “nightfriends” fan community. 

Spotify and local venue presales followed on Thursday, while the general public on-sale started Friday at 10:00 a.m. local time. The group urged fans to act fast, noting that several shows are already sold out and others are close to capacity.

The newly added stops come as part of a five-week tour that begins June 5 in Seattle and wraps July 11 in Denver. Originally postponed, the rescheduled dates now mark a full celebration of the band’s 45-year career.

The Church's 45th Anniversary

Formed in Sydney in 1980, The Church built a global following with their dreamy mix of post-punk and psychedelic rock. Their breakthrough album Starfish produced the hit “Under the Milky Way,” a song that still draws cheers decades later. Other fan favorites include “The Unguarded Moment,” “Reptile,” “Tantalized,” “Metropolis” and “Ripple.”

In recent years, the band has seen a creative resurgence. Their 2023 album The Hypnogogue and its companion release Eros Zeta and the Perfumed Guitars (2024) earned strong reviews and brought fresh attention to their evolving sound. In November 2025, they released the single “Sacred Echoes (Part Two),” which added to the excitement around this anniversary run.

Frontman and founding member Steve Kilbey described the track as “Bleak and yet beautiful… unlike any previous Church song ever with its almost orchestral climaxes and its sombre mood. The music is by turns delicate and sparse turning into a churning monstrous racket. Intense, forlorn and exultant!”

The five added concerts signal strong demand for the 45th anniversary tour. Some venues on the schedule are already sold out, including multiple nights in Phoenix. Other cities have issued low ticket alerts.

The full routing includes major stops in Seattle, Los Angeles, Dallas, Atlanta, New York City, Chicago and more, before closing in Denver on July 11. The July 4 show in Toronto gives Canadian fans a holiday celebration with one of Australia’s most respected rock bands.

The current lineup features Kilbey alongside longtime drummer Tim Powles, guitarist Ian Haug, multi-instrumentalist Jeffrey Cain and guitarist Ashley Naylor. 

For fans who have followed The Church since the 1980s, this tour is more than a string of concerts. It’s a milestone. 

As the band wrote in their announcement: “See you out there this summer!”
