BENEE announces 2022 Australia tour and here’s how to get tickets
BENEE is capping off a huge two years with the announcement of a mega 40 show world tour in 2022 – and she’s announcing some pretty special Australian dates as part of it.
As well as rescheduling her New Zealand tour dates (originally pencilled for February and March), BENEE will also make her first trip to our shores since she stole the show at Laneway Festival in early 2020.
Since then, her breakout hit ‘Supalonely’ has taken the world by storm, backed up by the release of her debut album Hey u x at the end of 2020 and a string of collaborations, covers, and a new single leading her through 2021.
Add to that, performances on a string of major television shows including The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Late Night With Seth Meyers, and alongside Elton John on his Apple Music Rocket Hour radio show.

BENEE
I AM SO READY TO TOUR!! Doing shows with my band is the best thing and I have missed it so badly this year. Waiting, rescheduling, waiting again has been incredibly difficult.
BENEE’s dreamy alt pop mixes her deeply heartfelt reflections on life in suburban Auckland, New Zealand, with offbeat and often whimsical lyrical encounters with zombies and snails, all produced with a technicolour ear for cooked beats and unpredictable hooks.
The album features guest appearances from the likes of Grimes, Lilly Allen, Gus Dapperton and Muroki, and was listed as one of Billboard’s 25 Best Pop Albums of 2020.
Alongside this announcement of BENEE’s huge 2022 world tour, we can also expect a forthcoming EP – so fans might get the chance to hear even more new music when these tour dates roll around.

Get to know Ticketmaster’s Smart Queue
If you aren’t familiar with Smart Queue, it is Ticketmaster’s way of creating a clear and fair process for thousands of fans to buy tickets in a short space of time. Fans enter the virtual Waiting Room prior to onsale time before joining the Smart Queue – which acts as a ‘virtual line’, helping us protect you and your tickets in a more effective way.
The time you join the Waiting Room does not determine your place in the Smart Queue, so we recommend joining at least 10 minutes prior to the event going on sale but there is no need to rush.
When the sale begins, the Smart Queue will open and everyone in the Waiting Room is given a place in line. Those who did not join the Waiting Room will be placed at the end of the line.
- Sign in to your Ticketmaster account at least 10 minutes before joining the Waiting Room. This will speed up your purchase later.
- Confirm you have a valid form of payment in your account with current email and billing information. This will make checkout a breeze.
- Resist the urge to refresh. Your page will automatically refresh when you enter the Smart Queue.
- Keep an eye on the time! When it’s your turn, your spot will be held for 10 minutes to begin shopping.
- Just like before, tickets are always based on availability, demand, and are not guaranteed.
What are In Deman tickets?
In Demand is a ticket-only option for the most in-demand areas and views in the house.
In Demand Tickets are made available by artists and event organisers through Ticketmaster. They give fans fair and safe access to in-demand seats at market-driven prices (adjusting prices according to supply and demand). In Demand tickets are ticket-only purchases, and prices are subject to change at any time.
Are there VIP packages available for BENEE’s Australian Tour’?
Yes – there will be a special VIP Q&A session with BENEE available for her Australian tour dates. See above for all inclusions.
Make sure you have a My Ticketmaster account
Get the basics covered before tickets go on sale by logging in and checking your Ticketmaster account ahead of time. If you don’t have a Ticketmaster Account then make sure you sign up in advance – Ticketmaster.com.au.
Sign into your My Ticketmaster account ahead of time
Remember to triple check your passwords, account information, and billing information are all filled in correctly in advance, that way you’re not facing any last-minute account updates when trying to process your order.
Keep an eye on the clock
There will be a time limit applied to all transactions as they’re progressed through the ticket purchasing stages. Remember to keep an eye on the timer on your screen and move through the processing pages as quickly as possible (this is even easier when you’ve completed the account set-up stage we mentioned above).
Don’t refresh your screen
Stick to one window while you’re in the Waiting Room and when you’re being pushed through the Smart Queue and always resist the urge to refresh.
Hitting the refresh button means you’ll lose your place in the queue and, as frustrating as it can get, patience is the only way to win this game. Ticketmaster is equipped with sophisticated systems that are designed to manage and process ticket purchases as quickly as possible. The queuing system that appears on your screen will place you at the front of the line as soon as possible.
Be sure to follow the above tips to ensure you have the best chance of snapping up some tickets.
We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: BENEE will bring her 2022 World Tour to Australia in March and April 2022. Tickets are on sale via Ticketmaster.com.au.
