Drake is officially heading back to Australia and New Zealand for the first time in eight years! On Thursday (Nov. 28), the global superstar announced the dates for his highly anticipated Anita Max Win Tour, set to kick off in February 2025.
The tour, produced by Live Nation, begins with two nights at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Feb. 9 and 10 and concludes with back-to-back shows at Auckland’s Spark Arena on Feb. 28 and March 1. Along the way, Drake will hit major cities including Sydney and Brisbane.
Tour Dates and Cities
Here’s the full itinerary for Drake’s Anita Max Win Tour:
- Feb. 9-10: Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne
- Feb. 14: Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney
- Feb. 18: Brisbane Entertainment Centre, Brisbane
- Feb. 28-March 1: Spark Arena, Auckland
Fans can grab tickets through presales starting Tuesday, Dec. 3. General ticket sales begin Wednesday, Dec. 6, at 12 p.m. local time. With this being Drake’s first tour in the region since 2017, demand is expected to be sky-high, so mark your calendars.
The Anita Max Win Tour gets its name from a viral moment during Drake’s December 2023 livestream on Kick, where he introduced a new “alter ego” named Anita Max Win. The name is a clever nod to the gambling phrase “I need a max win,” referring to hitting the jackpot on a slot machine. Fans quickly embraced the quirky persona, and it has now inspired the title of his latest tour.
Drake’s last tour in Australia and New Zealand was in 2017, making this comeback even more special for fans Down Under. Known for delivering electrifying performances and a catalog of chart-topping hits, the Anita Max Win Tour promises to be a must-see event.
