The Perth singer-songwriter joins the November run through Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.
Khalid has added Newport as the special guest for his Australian It’s Always Summer Somewhere tour. Frontier Touring announced the pairing on November 9. The announcement outlines the new collaboration.
The four-show itinerary lists Brisbane’s Riverstage for November 11. It continues at Sydney’s Afterpay Arena on November 13 and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on November 15.
The run ends at Perth’s RAC Arena on November 18. That final stop brings Newport back to his home city as part of the same support slot.
Newport is a singer, songwriter and producer whose profile has been rising this year. Triple j Unearthed selected him among its Forecast Artists of 2026.
The tour marks Khalid’s first Australian arena appearances since the Free Spirit run in 2019. He returned to the country in 2024 for two Sydney Opera House performances connected to Sincere.
His latest album, After The Sun Goes Down, arrived in October 2025. The support announcement adds an Australian artist to a tour that now spans four cities in just over a week.
