Harlan Goode, runner-up on the 2026 season of Australian Idol, is bringing his first headline tour to Memo Music Hall.
The Brisbane vocalist spent the season stacking up big, room-filling performances, and Harlan Goode now steps out on a three-stop East Coast run billed as the Homecoming Tour, with St Kilda taking the final night.

Goode built a national profile through Australian Idol, where his takes on well-known songs made him one of the season’s standout names. The Homecoming Tour is his first proper stretch of headline dates since the finale, and it follows a Brisbane hometown show that cleared out within days of going on sale.
The run is billed as Goode’s first East Coast tour, and his first set of headline shows away from the competition stage, where he finished as the 2026 runner-up. The Homecoming name points back to the Queensland base he’s built out of Brisbane.
On stage he moves between rock and country, with a voice he’s traced back to Freddie Mercury, George Michael and Celine Dion. A live band sits behind him at every stop, and the sets pair the covers that carried him through Idol with a first look at his own material. Some of the covers also get reworked arrangements for the tour.
The Melbourne leg lands at Memo Music Hall, the St Kilda room tucked behind the RSL off Albert Street, which has flagged the show as selling fast. Doors open at 3pm and the set starts at 4pm, with online tickets running from $43 to $56 plus booking fee.
Before Melbourne, the tour opens on the Gold Coast at The SoundLounge in Currumbin, then heads to Sydney’s Evan Theatre inside Penrith Panthers. The Sydney and Melbourne shows fall two days apart, with the Gold Coast opener set earlier in the month. Each date is ticketed through the individual venue rather than a single national outlet.
