Paramore Announce 2018 Australian East Coast Tour

In support of their May-released fifth studio album, After Laughter, Paramore will head to Australia in 2018 for a headline tour of the country's east coast. 

The Grammy Award-winning US trio will hit Down Under in early February for arena shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. 

The Aussie headline gigs will be Paramore's first in four years.

After Laughter was a hit across the globe, peaking at #3 on the ARIA Albums chart and #1 on the US Billboard Top Alternative Albums and Top Rock albums lists. 

The tour announce could also rule Paramore out of the inaugural Download Festival Australian event, despite them being heavily tipped to be named on the line-up (to be announced tomorrow), given that the festival goes down a month later.

Tickets for the Australian headline dates go on sale from midday local time on Wednesday 15 November. See all of the dates and venues below.
