Nine years since last performing in Australia, U2 will bring The Joshua Tree tour to stages around the country in November to celebrate their iconic 1987 album with fans. The Irish band's fifth album topped charts around the world and to mark it's 30th anniversary the group played arena shows across North America, Europe and South America in 2017. Local fans can now see The Joshua Tree tour live on stage when it comes to Brisbane on November 12, Melbourne on November 15, Adelaide on November 19, Sydney on November 22 and Perth on November 27. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, June 11. "Our audience has given The Joshua Tree a whole new life on this tour,"said U2 singer Bono, who in 1987 was featured on the cover of Time magazine as the band's popularity spread globally. "Doing these shows has been very special for us, a lot of emotion ... from the despair of how relevant some of the dark songs still are, to the joy, pure fun of the staging ... it's quite a ride."

With Special Guests: Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Following the highly successful 2017 tour in celebration of the band's seminal album, The Joshua Tree Tour 2019 will see the band make a much anticipated return to Australia for the first time since the record-shattering U2 360° Tour in 2010. Bono said "It's only taken me 30 years to learn how to sing these songs and it's great to be able to say that I've finally caught up with the band. Our audience has given the Joshua Tree a whole new life on this tour." "They are a live act simply without peer... [U2] kicked the crowd into a whole other gear of euphoria"- Rolling Stone
