Overview

Back by popular demand, John Williamson will return to QPAC for one night only on Friday 3rd November 2023. As John slows down from the demands of touring and performs at fewer venues around the country, don’t miss this opportunity to see him, accompanied by his full band.

In 2023 our Aussie music icon will celebrate his 53rd year in the entertainment industry. With a swag of accolades including induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame and the Australian Roll of Renown, an Order of Australia, 28 Golden Guitar Awards, over five million albums sold, over one billion music streams reached in 2022 and a catalogue of over 500 self-penned songs.

He has produced enduring classics such as "Galleries of Pink Galahs", "Three Sons", "Cydi", "Raining on the Rock", "Rip Rip Woodchip", not to mention "True Blue". From boabs to billabongs and snowy mountains to sandy beaches, the Mallee-born songwriter’s 52 albums have traversed Australia, moving between larrikin humour and touching pathos.

Perhaps John’s greatest legacy is making Australians proud of their country and of who they are.

Don’t miss out seeing ‘true blue’ star, John Williamson, live in QPAC’s Concert Hall on Friday 3 November 2023 before he finally ‘hangs his hat in QLD’ as the song says.
