Paul Weller will return to Australia in 2024 with three shows in Sydney at the Opera House in 2024.
“After his triumphant sellout 2018 debut we thought the Modfather’s lighting would never strike Sydney Opera House twice, so it is an absolute joy to be welcoming back the mighty Paul Weller for three exclusive in-the-round performances next year. From The Jam, The Style Council to his magnificent solo oeuvre, Paul Weller’s work has made an indelible impact on me, and it is a genuine privilege to program someone who’s influenced me since I was a teenager, hungrily devouring all the punk/post-punk work I could lay my hands on. Who knows if we will ever get another chance to experience moments like these again – see you in the Concert Hall this summer,” said Sydney Opera House Head of Contemporary Music, Ben Marshall.
