Melbourne-born, London-based SWIM has locked in a five-date national run for 2027, three nights of it backed by a live orchestra.
Melbourne’s own SWIM is heading back down under in 2027 for the most ambitious headline run of his career.
Presented by Untitled Group and Live Nation, the five-date national tour lands SWIM in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne with a full orchestra in tow, before the electronic producer wraps things up with standalone shows in Perth and Adelaide.

- 30 January 2027 – Carriageworks, Sydney NSW (live with orchestra)
- 5 February 2027 – Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane QLD (live with orchestra)

That expanded staging builds on a sold-out night at the Sydney Opera House, where SWIM shared the stage with a 14-piece orchestra. The East Coast dates fold live electronics, string arrangements and large-scale production into a single show, scaling up a concept he’d only previously pulled off for one special evening.
Pre-sale registration is open from announcement, with early-access tickets going live at 11am local time on 8 October. General public tickets follow at 12pm local on 9 October.
He arrives on the back of his second record, Dear Friend, which topped the ARIA Australian Dance Albums Chart and cracked the top five of the ARIA Australian Albums Chart. His independently released debut, In Circles, managed a similar run, hitting the summit of both the Australian Dance Albums Chart and the ARIA Vinyl Albums Chart.
Since breaking out of Melbourne’s dance underground, the fiercely independent producer has pulled a following well beyond home, selling out rooms like the Forum, London’s KOKO and the Opera House while turning up at festivals across Australia and Europe. Homecoming shows at this scale don’t come around often.
