Kendrick Lamar is expanding his Australian dates with shows in Melbourne and Sydney. The upcoming dates add a second night in each city, after initially announcing dates set to take place on Dec. 3 and 10 with support from ScHoolboy Q. Doechii will be joining Lamar on the new shows, which are scheduled on Dec. 4 in Melbourne and Dec. 11 in Sydney.

Presented by Live Nation and pgLang, the “Grand National Tour” kicked off earlier this year as a co-headline with SZA. International tour dates include stops in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Colombia throughout September and October.

Lamar and Doechii will also appear on the 2025 Spilt Milk Festival lineup, with stops in Canberra, Ballarat, Perth and the Gold Coast from late November to early December. The upcoming Australian run marks Lamar’s first time performing in the Land Down Under since his “Big Steppers Tour” in 2022.

Lamar is managed by pgLang’s Dave Free and booked by Wasserman Music’s Brent Smith. With 155 headline reports submitted to Pollstar’s Boxoffice, Lamar has sold a total of 2.1 million tickets, grossing $279.2 million. On Pollstar‘s Mid-Year charts for Top 100 Worldwide Touring Artists, Lamar and SZA’s “Grand National Tour” came in at No. 3 with a $100.2 million reported gross, selling a total of 447,327 tickets across nine shows.
