Rock powerhouse Ann Wilson has today announced she is bringing her Ann Wilson & Tripsitter, The Voice of Heart tour to Australia as sideshows to her appearance at the exclusive one-night only Carreras & Friends performance on December 5 at The Gabba.

With over 20 shows across the U.S., Canada, and Japan, the tour will head down under from November with four shows across Adelaide, Gold Coast, Melbourne and Sydney.

The sideshows will see the legendary lead singer of Heart perform alongside her backing band, Tripsitter showcasing classic Heart hits, solo material, and tracks from their collaborative albums Another Door and Consecrated Ground.

Joining Ann on the Australian leg of the tour, special guests Dragon, one of Australasia’s most enduring and influential rock acts and the band behind anthem hits like April Sun in Cuba, Are You Old Enough?, and Rain.

As the founder and lead singer-songwriter of the barrier-breaking band Heart, Ann has sold more than 35 million records and is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy Lifetime Achievement award recipient. As one of the first women to front a hard rock band at arena scale, Ann helped redefine the possibilities for female artists in rock, delivering era-defining hits like “Barracuda,” “Magic Man,” and “Crazy on You”.

Echo Pacific Director Harley Medcalf said: “Christmas is coming early for Australian rock fans who are getting an early gift from Ann Wilson, not only as she takes the stage with the world’s greatest artists for a night of collaboration, emotion and surprise in Carreras & Friends but that she is also bringing her 2026 Ann Wilson & Tripsitter, The Voice of Heart tour to our shores.”

Backed by the Queensland Symphony Orchestra and choir, Carreras & Friends will transform The Gabba into a world-class concert spectacular blending timeless opera, beloved contemporary classics and powerful collaborations under the Brisbane sky.
