Music legend Sir Elton John and his band will be returning to Australia to perform his 'All The Hits Tour", singing all of the classics that has made him one of the most successful and beloved artists of all time. Having played 179 concerts to over 1.5 million people across the country since 1971, John makes a triumphant return to the country that has welcomed him for many years.
'Australia has been one of my favourite countries to tour ever since my first visit there at the start of my world-wide career. Some of my most memorable concerts have taken place in venues all across the continent. The Australian audiences always seem to bring out the best in us, and I am certain there will be many more fantastic evenings when we visit in December," said Elton John.
