Born in Mozambique and raised in Lisbon’s Mouraria district, Mariza has spent over two decades redefining Fado for global audiences. Known for preserving the genre’s deep emotion while exploring new musical territories, she has released 30 platinum albums and performed alongside music legends like Sting, Gilberto Gil, and Lenny Kravitz.

Speaking about her upcoming Australian tour, Mariza shared the special connection she feels with the country. “Australia holds a special place in my heart, and returning to this distant yet so close country through music is always a deeply personal moment,” she said. “The Australian audience has a unique sensitivity, and this tour will be a journey through the soul, where fado and the deepest emotions intertwine.”
Mariza’s tour will include performances at some of Australia’s most prestigious venues, offering audiences a unique chance to experience the raw emotion and power of Fado.
