This marks Sonu Nigam’s first ever performance at Rod Laver Arena, and the promoters are calling it the biggest Bollywood concert of 2026.

Who Is Sonu Nigam

Sonu Nigam is one of Bollywood’s most recognised voices, with a singing career spanning more than three decades. He’s known for hits like Kal Ho Naa Ho, Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin, and Suraj Hua Maddham.

His catalogue covers romantic ballads, devotional tracks, and upbeat dance numbers, which is part of why his shows draw such a wide age range of fans. He’s also released new music in 2026, including the single Na Ja Re, so expect a mix of old favourites and recent work.

Full Australia and New Zealand Tour Dates

The Revolution Tour isn’t a one-off Melbourne show. It’s a multi-city run across Australia and New Zealand in October 2026:

2 October – Spark Arena, Auckland
3 October – TikTok Entertainment Centre, Sydney
10 October – Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne
11 October – Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, Brisbane
16 October – Adelaide Entertainment Centre, Adelaide

Melbourne fans get their date a week after Sydney, so there’s plenty of time to lock in flights and accommodation if you’re travelling in for the show.

What to Expect at the Show

Concerts on this tour typically run close to three hours, with a full live band and a stage production built around lighting, lasers, and sound design. Setlists have leaned on classic favourites including Kal Ho Naa Ho, Saathiya, Sandese Aate Hain, and You Are My Soniya, plus a tribute segment for Mohammed Rafi with songs like Chaudhvin Ka Chand Ho.

Keep in mind the exact setlist can change from city to city, so treat this as a guide rather than a guarantee.

Ticket Prices

Prices vary by seating category and change as the date gets closer. As a general guide:

General admission starts from around $79
Mid-tier seating such as Silver sits around $121
Premium VVIP packages can run up to roughly $687

Buy only through Ticketek or the official Rod Laver Arena event page. Resale sites often charge well above face value, and there’s no guarantee those tickets will scan at the door.

Getting to Rod Laver Arena

Melbourne Park sits close to the CBD, and public transport is the easiest way in on concert night given the crowds.

Trams and trains connect directly to Melbourne Park precinct
Parking is available at Eastern Plaza Car Park via Olympic Boulevard, and pre-booking is recommended
Accessible parking must be booked ahead through Ticketek

If you’re flying in from interstate or overseas for the concert, book your flights and accommodation early. Prices to Melbourne climb fast in the weeks before a major event like this one.

Planning a Melbourne Trip Around the Concert

A lot of fans are turning this into a full weekend away, with a Saturday night show plus a day or two exploring the city. Melbourne’s got plenty to fill the gap either side of the concert, from laneway cafes and street art around Hosier Lane to the Royal Botanic Gardens and Federation Square.

Rod Laver Arena doesn’t host a Bollywood headliner like this every year, so if you’re planning to travel in for the show, get your flights and stay sorted early.
