Australia’s favourite songstress Missy Higgins will cap off a huge year with her long-awaited return to a day on the green at Bowral in November.

For the past five months Missy’s travelled throughout the country on her The Second Act Tour, which celebrates 20 years since her first album, “The Sound of White” was released.

In November, she will be inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame, joining stars such as AC/DC, INXS, John Farnham, Jet and Olivia Newton John, to name a few.

Her new album, “The Second Act”, will be released on 6 September.

She will also perform at a day on the green in Queensland and South Australia, marking the first time she’s headlined since 2006.

“I never imagined it would take me most of 2024 to do this Australian tour,” she says.

“It’s been such a great experience on every level that I’m glad the band and I will get to share it a few more times with all these big crowds.

“There have been lots of fans posting about how disappointed they were to miss out on getting a chance to see this two-act show so now they’ll have no excuse!”

Missy’s The Second Act Tour – Final Encore Shows will also feature Kate Miller-Heidke and Ruby Fields.
