Red Hot Summer Tour is turning up the heat again in 2027, bringing another huge lineup of Australian rock favourites to Lake Macquarie.

On Saturday, January 30, Jimmy Barnes will headline Red Hot Summer Tour at Speers Point Park, joined by Jon Stevens, Birds of Tokyo, Eskimo Joe, Baby Animals, Chocolate Starfish and Sarah McLeod.

Following another huge year of shows around the country, Red Hot Summer Tour is returning with a jam-packed day of live music led by one of Australian rock's most recognisable voices.

Jimmy Barnes heads up the 2027 bill, with a career spanning decades of Australian rock and a catalogue made for a big outdoor singalong.

Joining him is an all-Australian lineup featuring Jon Stevens, Birds of Tokyo and Eskimo Joe, alongside Baby Animals, Chocolate Starfish and Sarah McLeod.

This time around, the Lake Macquarie leg lands at Speers Point Park, setting the scene for a summer afternoon of live music by the lake.

Tickets roll out this week, beginning with the Telstra Plus presale from 11am on Wednesday, 7 October. Red Hot Summer Tour presale tickets follow from midday on Thursday, 8 October, before general public tickets go on sale at midday on Friday, 9 October.

If an afternoon of Australian rock in the summer sun sounds like your kind of Saturday, get this one in the calendar.
