GLOBAL superstar crooner Michael Bublé will thrill Australian audiences with a one-off special event on October 5 to mark the closure of Allianz Stadium in Sydney.
It’s the first time Bublé has returned to Australia since his hugely successful 2014 tour.
The singer had a near three-year layoff from performing to focus on his young son Noah’s successful battle with cancer. He returned to the stage earlier this month in Dublin’s Croke Park in front of 65,000 fans to unanimous rave reviews.
The next weekend he headlined British Summer Time in London’s Hyde Park where more than 50,000 fans stood and sang-long in the rain.
Michael believes the layoff has given him a new perspective on his life and that he has channeled the love and pain into an 8th studio album, due out later this year.
“This perspective has cost a lot but it has allowed me to truly rekindle a romance with music,” Bublé said. “And I can’t wait to get to Australia and perform.”
Beginning with a passion for singing and interpreting great standards from the American Songbook, Buble’s unprecedented musical course began with the release of his self-titled Top 10 album and a Canadian Juno Award for “Best New Artist”. He has sold over 50 million albums worldwide and has had multiple #1 albums in Australia. His album “Christmas” has been to the top of the charts 7 years in a row and has sold over 1 million records in this country.
Allianz Stadium will be closed for three years for refurbishment and reconstruction.
