What Can Fans Expect from the Show?

Expect a genre-bending performance blending rock, funk, soul, and powerful new music from his latest album, Blue Electric Light.

Fans can look forward to:

  • Classic hits like Fly Away, American Woman, Again
  • New tracks from the Blue Electric Light 2024 album
  • A stage presence that mixes sensual cool with unfiltered soul
  • Visuals and lighting crafted to elevate the atmosphere

As someone who saw Lenny live at Byron Bluesfest years ago, trust me, this is not just a concert. It’s an energy shift. And if he plays Are You Gonna Go My Way, I’ll probably lose it. That’s my all-time favourite, pure raw rock energy that hits right in the chest. Don’t miss it.

Why This Tour is Special for Melbourne

This is Lenny Kravitz’s first Australian tour since COVID-era cancellations, making it a symbolic comeback for both fans and the artist.

After the disappointment of the 2020 cancellation, this 2025 show delivers redemption and some long-overdue rock and soul under Melbourne’s spring skies.

Michelle’s tip: As someone who saw Lenny live at Byron Bluesfest years ago, trust me this is not just a concert. It’s an energy shift. Seeing him perform in Melbourne will be electric. Don’t miss it.
