Fans attending shows will not only be spoilt with the presence of the living legend, Sir Rod himself, but also his very special guests. Sir Rod Stewart will be joined on his 2023 tour by revered artist Cyndi Lauper. Lauper is not only a ground-breaking talent but a Grammy, Emmy and Tony Award-winning songwriter and performer. Her iconic voice, influential punk glamour and infectious live shows catapulted her to stardom.

Opening for all shows on the tour is also acclaimed rock singer Jon Stevens. As the frontman for Noiseworks he is a member of that exclusive club: the Kiwis who are so successful and talented that we claim them as our own.

Sir Rod Stewart’s rekindled love for songwriting is clear on his 31 st  studio album,  THE TEARS OF HERCULES . It is Stewart’s fourth new album of original songs since 2013, when he reconnected with his songwriting muse to record Time , the chart-topping album which entered the Top 10 in the US and ten countries worldwide, including #1 in the U.K. You won’t want to miss out on this show-stopping tour, but you better act quickly as we expect it’ll be a sell-out event!

Get to know Ticketmaster’s Smart Queue

If you aren’t familiar with  Smart Queue , it is Ticketmaster’s way of creating a clear and fair process for thousands of fans to buy tickets in a short space of time. Fans enter the virtual  Waiting Room  prior to onsale time before joining the  Smart Queue  – which acts as a ‘virtual line’, helping us protect you and your tickets in a more effective way.

The time you join the Waiting Room does not determine your place in the Smart Queue, so we recommend joining at least 10 minutes prior to the event going on sale.

When the sale begins, the Smart Queue will open and everyone in the Waiting Room is given a place in line. Those who did not join the Waiting Room will be placed at the end of the line.

• Sign in to your Ticketmaster account at least 10 minutes before joining the Waiting Room. This will speed up your purchase later.
• Confirm you have a valid form of payment in your account with current email and billing information. This will make checkout a breeze.
• Resist the urge to refresh. Your page will automatically refresh when you enter the Smart Queue.
• Keep an eye on the time! When it’s your turn, your spot will be held for 10 minutes to begin shopping.
• Just like before, tickets are always based on availability, demand, and are not guaranteed.

In Demand tickets are made available by artists and event organisers through Ticketmaster. They give fans fair and safe access to the most sought-after areas in the venue at market-driven prices (adjusting prices according to supply and demand). In Demand tickets are ticket-only purchases, and prices are subject to change at any time.

Hints and tips for improving your chances of getting tickets to Rod Stewart’s 2023 Australian Tour

Make sure you have a my ticketmaster account.

Get the basics covered before tickets go on sale by logging in and checking your Ticketmaster account ahead of time. If you don’t have a Ticketmaster Account then make sure you sign up in advance –  Ticketmaster.com.au .

Sign into your My Ticketmaster account ahead of time

Remember to triple check your passwords, account information, and billing information are all filled in correctly in advance, that way you’re not facing any last-minute account updates when trying to process your order.

Keep your options open with ‘Best Available’

Save time by searching “Best Available,” which scans all sections fast – it’s quicker than searching sections one at a time.

Keep an eye on the clock

There will be a time limit applied to all transactions as you are progressed through the ticket purchasing stages. Remember to keep an eye on the timer on your screen and move through the processing pages as quickly as possible (this is even easier when you’ve completed the account set-up stage we mentioned above).

Don’t refresh your screen

Stick to one window while you’re in the  Waiting Room  and when you’re being pushed through  the Smart Queue  and always resist the urge to refresh.

Hitting the refresh button means you’ll lose your place in the queue and, as frustrating as it can get, patience is the only way to win this game. Ticketmaster is equipped with sophisticated systems that are designed to manage and process ticket purchases as quickly as possible. The queuing system that appears on your screen will place you at the front of the line as soon as possible.

Remember: there are a lot of fans

We’re expecting this to be a very popular event. When a popular event goes on sale there are hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of customers all attempting to purchase tickets at the same time. Tickets are sold as long as seats are available, and when an act is this popular, sometimes they go very quickly.

Be sure to follow the above tips to ensure you have the best chance of snapping up some tickets.

Rod Stewart, with very special guest Cyndi Lauper, will be bringing their tour to Australia in March 2023.  Tickets are on sale via Ticketmaster.com.au.

Rod Stewart fills in potholes outside Essex property

Sir Rod will perform a massive two-hour set including all of his iconic hits including Maggie May, Rhythm of My Heart and Baby Jane.

While Lauper will take to the stage for an hour to perform all her hits including Time After Time, True Colours, and, of course, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.

Seventy-seven year-old Sir Rod told The Daily Telegraph that this will be the last time he brings a “big rock show” Down Under.

Sir Rod and Lauper will also perform at several A Day On The Green Shows across the east coast.

The Rock N Roll Hall of Famer was forced to cancel his Australian tour at the beginning of the year due to the pandemic.

“My dear friends, once again I feel we’ve all been cheated by this evil disease, so it is with great regret that I announce my shows for 2022 have had to be cancelled,” he said in a statement at the time.

“My thoughts are with all your families at this difficult time as we come out of the joyous and hopefully safe holiday season and I look forward to returning to Australia as soon as the health situation permits.”

Ticket holders for his previous show were given refunds.

General public tickets for the 2023 show will go on sale on Thursday, November 17 at 1:00pm, Perth time.

Rod Stewart and Cyndi Lauper Open Australian Tour In Perth

by Paul Cashmere on March 13, 2023

Rod Stewart’s long overdue Australian tour has final started. The tour originally planned for 2020 and the postponed and then postponed again due to Covid, has finally opened with the first show in Perth.

Rod’s set spans back to his 1971 and 1972 classic albums ‘Every Picture Tells A Story’ and ‘Never A Dull Moment’ with 1973’s final Faces album ‘Ooh La La’ also getting a nod with the title track.

The Rod Stewart setlist is mainly sticking with the classic years through to 1991’s ‘Vagabond Heart’ amd 1993’s live ‘Unplugged … and Seated”. He did dabble into 2018’s ‘Blood Red Roses’ with the blues over of ‘Rollin’ and Tumblin’ but mostly ignores the American Songbook albums and studio albums from 1995 to 2021 with the exception of the 2018 moment.

Cyndi Lauper has the shorter set but fills it with the hits you know centred around her first (and biggest) album ‘She’s So Unusual’. You are never more than one song away from a song you know in the Cyndi setlist.

Rod Stewart review: The Hits Australian Tour at RAC Arena with special guests Cyndi Lauper and Jon Stevens

Not afraid of getting political, both Rod Stewart and Cyndi Lauper championed causes close to their hearts as they took to the stage in Perth on Saturday night.

While ‘80s mega-star Lauper dedicated a somewhat lower-energy version of her seminal hit Girls Just Wanna Have Fun to the cause of female human rights, Sir Rod opined that the “most important part” of his show was a touching tribute to the people of Ukraine.
