Kylie Minogue has been talking about an Anti-Tour for a while now. Tonight she confirmed that she is kicking off the Anti-Tour, in her home town of Melbourne, in a couple of weeks!
Shows have been announced at the Palace in Melbourne (18 March) and The Big Top, Luna Park, Sydney (20 March). Tickets go on sale at noon (AESST) on Wednesday 7 March.
@SteveAnderson (Kylie’s Musical Director) tweeted that the set list will be made up of “b sides and rarities, played live with our fabulous Aphrodite band!”
Kylie.com expanded on this. Describing the Anti-Tour as “Small, intimate, unexpected. A unique experience, for super fans only. Kylie and her band performing those songs you thought you’d never hear live! The flipside to a huge “Kylie production”, a once in a lifetime chance and a night to remember.”
Kylie is trying to combat scalping, and ensure that only fans get tickets at a set price of $129.60, rather than exorbitant prices scalpers ask for them, by limiting tickets to 2 per sale and ID must match the ticketholder’s details on the day of the concert.
I’d say there are still going to be many disappointed fans as these limited tickets will definitely sell out quickly. This is a rare opportunity to see Kylie in her most intimate settings, the last time Kylie played such small venues was when she first started touring back in the early 90s!
No other dates or venues have been announced, but no doubt there will be more Anti-Tour shows in this, the year that Kylie celebrates 25 years in the music industry.
While we wait for more dates to be announced check out Kylie’s fabulous performance at this weekend’s Sydney Mardi-Gras.
Hi,
I’m Sarina Bellissimo and this is the place I come to indulge in my love of all things entertainment. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t fascinated by all things Hollywood/showbiz. I blame my parents!
As a child my mum used to force me to watch old Elvis Presley films with her, and both my mum & dad would take my brothers and I to the Drive-In to watch the latest films (this is where my love for ROCKY began!). When not watching movies, I was trying to figure out ways to pull the back off the TV so I could somehow get into it and be a part of all the action on the screen!
This blog isn’t a place that revels in gossip and negativity. It’s a place where entertainment is celebrated. That said, this is a place you can turn to for honesty. Honesty and criticism don’t always mean attacks. I choose to criticise the piece of work but not the person and I acknowledge that just because I don’t like something, it doesn’t mean someone else won’t.
Here you’ll find interviews with some of the biggest names in the world of Entertainment, reviews, breaking news and my very own musings.
Away from The Bellissimo Files, you can find me on Spin 1038 on Saturdays, between 1pm and 3pm,presenting Plan B. There’s celebrity interviews, entertainment news, the low down on the must see movies and music releases of the week, the ultimate guide to what’s on where in the city, as well as masterclasses with experts on standby to answer listeners’ questions.
I also appear on TV3’s “Elaine” panel, talk movies on “Ireland AM” and you can sometimes hear me filling in on Moncrieff’s “Movies and Booze “(Newstalk)
The Bellissimo Files is constantly evolving. Files (topics) will be added or deleted as time goes on. Feel free to read, watch, comment, share, and make suggestions for what you would like to see on the site.
