Continuing to build on momentum struck on their last visit to Australia in 2025, Auckland indie firebrands NO CIGAR are levelling up, announcing their biggest run of Australian tour dates yet. Taking place across September and October, NO CIGAR’s Australian return comes off the back of a string of successes in the international market, including sold out shows in the UK; as well as additional impact made on fans and industry alike with the release of their acclaimed third album, Under The Surface. The band’s music has cultivated a fiercely loyal following across the UK, North America and Europe while in Australia, NO CIGAR have carved out a space of their own within this latest wave of rock music that finds itself built on an expert blend of indie, surf and alternative rock elements. Bringing their energetic and captivating show back to Australia for their fourth run, the band is excited to be back to reconnect with audiences, while also previewing what is on the horizon for their highly-anticipated new chapter. The Australian tour will see NO CIGAR perform thirteen shows across the country, taking in metro city favourites and also regional locations that the band has yet to visit. Being able to play in towns like Armidale on their last tour inspired the band to explore more regional areas. Locking in shows down the East Coast in locations like Newcastle, Moonee Beach, Wollongong and more, has positioned this Australian tour as a dream run for NO CIGAR – the perfect way to start the road to a new creative phase.
