Then fans cracked the code: **Powderfinger **were coming back. The tour news lit up the country, with 26 shows selling out in just days. Now the band are excited to announce that they’ll bring their 2027 tour home with a final **Encore Run** of shows across November and December. Tassie and ACT fans, you’ve been heard! The Encore Run will see Powderfinger head to new locations, playing two nights at **Cornelian Bay Oval, Hobart **and a show at **Stage 88 in Canberra**. We know some of you who are local to Hobart and Canberra have already locked in plans to see the band elsewhere on the tour. If you live in TAS or ACT and you manage to get tickets to your home town show, you’ll be able to request a refund on your original event tickets. More details on how to do this will be shared once the new shows are on sale. Be sure to subscribe to **[powderfinger.com](http://powderfinger.com)** for more information. The Encore Run will also see the band pitch their stadium-sized tent back at **Melbourne Park Oval** for two more nights and add two additional shows in Perth at the stunning **Sandalford Estate.** Adelaide fans, you haven't been forgotten. Hang in there. For the grand finale, the band will take it outdoors for **two massive festival-format shows at the Brisbane Showgrounds**, bringing the tour home to the city where it all began with a bunch of amazing artists along for the ride. The very final show will be an all Bris-band celebration and a tribute to their hometown. *"When we saw how many people missed out on tickets, we knew we couldn't leave it there. So we're adding some final shows and we've been able to include dates in Hobart and Canberra, which we're really excited about. We also have some very talented mates joining us. Thank you for keeping the faith and for being so patient. We can't wait to see you out there. Love BF xx"* **said Bernard Fanning on behalf of Powderfinger.** ![Five people in dark clothing stand together in a black and white photograph against a stage backdrop.](https://media.onyourmarkus.au/admin/2026/10/3f2cd929-3ff6-4e07-b76d-3537aa04922a.jpg) True to their promise, Powderfinger have curated an incredible, **all-Australian lineup of support acts for the Encore Run**.
