Aitch Announces Australian Tour Dates For January 2026
Aitch has announced his return to Australia, with four headlining shows booked in for the first week of 2026. The Mancunian rapper's January dates come as part of his 4 world tour, so named after his second studio album that was released last month, and see him back in the country for the first time in nearly three years. The full list of tour dates, as well as ticketing information, can be found below. After having to inevitably postpone (and later cancel) his debut Australian tour in 2020, Aitch first visited Australia over the 2022/23 new-year period. While in Australia, he performed on the line-up for the Wildlands, Beyond The Valley and Field Day festivals. He then returned in 2023 to feature on that year's Spilt Milk line-up alongside Post Malone, Dom Dolla, Latto, MAY-A and Jessie Murph. Since Aitch was last in Australia, he has continued to be prolific in both single releases and features on other artist's songs. These include the singles 'Raving In The Studio', a collaboration with Bou, and 'A Guy Called?' – both of which cracked the top 40 of the UK Singles Chart earlier in 2025. His features, meanwhile, have included guest spots on AJ Tracey's 'Friday Player' (alongside Headie One), Potter Payper's 'DND' and the remix of YouTuber Yung Philly's track 'Grey' from last year. Aitch – 'Bounce' 4 was released in June 2025, almost three years on from his 2022 debut Close To Home. It debuted at number seven on the UK Albums Chart upon release, while simultaneously topping the UK Independent Albums Chart and coming in at number two on the UK R&B Albums Chart. The album also saw success in Scotland, debuting at number five on the Scottish Album Charts. The album's release was preceded by five singles: 'Straight Rhymez 2', 'Bounce', 'Luv?' (featuring Anne-Marie), 'Till L4te' (featuring Pozer) and 'Col4 Body' (with Tiggs The Author). 4 also features guest verses from AJ Tracey, Chimpo, Tamera, Kenzo Str8Drop and Avelino, plus contributions from Headie One and Nafe Smallz on the bonus tracks on the deluxe edition of the album. Aitch 4 2026 Australian Tour Saturday, January 3rd – Hordern Pavilion, Sydney NSW Monday, January 5th – Festival Hall, Melbourne VIC Wednesday, January 7th – Hindley Street Music Hall, Adelaide SA Friday, January 9th – Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane QLD A pre-sale for the tour will go live from 10am local time on Monday, July 21st.

Sunday Brunch guest rushes off set as host asks 'are you leaving us'
Sunday Brunch star Big Zuu was forced to make a quick exit from the Channel 4 programme as he raced to Glastonbury to perform with rapper AJ Tracey The Sunday Brunch set was one guest down midway through the show, as Big Zuu made an early exit to dash for Glastonbury. The rapper, 29, returned to the programme to present his quirky culinary creation: a "lasagne on pizza". Eager to get moving, he breezed through his cooking demonstration, quickly making an exit to catch his ride to the iconic festival. Big Zuu kicked off the show with Jim Moir, Aisling Bea, Nick Helm, Fuse ODG, Damon Hill, and Such Brave Girls duo Kat Sadler and Lizzie Davidson. But as he was mid-preparation of his unique lasagne-pizza fusion, Simon interjected to query: "Are you leaving us after this?", reports the Manchester Evening News. "I have to go yeah, I can't stay," admitted Big Zuu. "I'm going to Glastonbury." With a chuckle, he added: "I've got to go to Glasto and find myself." He shared that he was set to rock the stage with AJ Tracey, planning to head out from the Channel 4 set in his tour bus. Big Zuu revealed: "I'm going to travel three hours for ten minutes [on stage]," while flaunting his all-ready wristband ahead of his 8pm slot. "You've got time," Tim chimed in encouragingly, with a confident Big Zuu responding: "I'll make it." Despite the rush to Glastonbury, recently notching up a goal at SoccerAid, and launching a Sky series with AJ Tracey, Big Zuu claimed during other parts of the show that his schedule was remarkably clear. "This is the first time in my life I'm actually doing nothing, I'm just going to chill," he declared. "I'm going to find myself, it's really good, it's nice to chill, I get to do lots of fun stuff, I like relaxing and just working on me." Later in the programme, Kim Sadler from Such Brave Girls disclosed her notes about the show with the remark: "Zuu bunked off for Glasto," hinting that the star had taken time off prior to the break for the festival.
