EVENT INFORMATION
Celebrating 20 years of Queen Forever, this very special performance marks two decades of delivering the most authentic, theatrical, and electrifying Queen experience anywhere in the world. To honour that milestone, the band are taking over the legendary Palais Theatre — a venue synonymous with unforgettable moments in Australian music history — for one massive night of rock, celebration, and spectacle.
From the very first note, audiences will be transported into the world of Freddie Mercury and Queen. Gareth Hill’s portrayal of Freddie is nothing short of astonishing — the voice, the movement, the charisma, the flamboyance. He commands the stage with the same magnetic energy that made Freddie a global icon. Alongside him, Scott Bastian delivers Brian May’s soaring guitar solos with pinpoint precision, Brad Hodgkinson thunders through Roger Taylor’s powerhouse rhythms, Darryn McLaughlin anchors the groove with John Deacon’s unmistakable bass lines, and Danny Oakhill brings the lush layers of keyboards and harmonies to life. Together, they don’t just perform the songs — they become Queen.
Backed by immersive visuals, dazzling lighting, and wall-to-wall anthems, this is a full-scale theatrical rock experience. Expect Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You, We Are the Champions, Somebody to Love, Radio Ga Ga, Don’t Stop Me Now, Killer Queen, Another One Bites the Dust — plus a selection of rotating deep cuts for the die-hard fans.
And because this is the official 20th birthday celebration, the night doesn’t end when the final note rings out.
For this show only, Queen Forever are hosting an exclusive VIP Afterparty at The Vineyard, St Kilda, just a three-minute walk from The Palais Theatre.
🎉 VIP Birthday Party Package holders receive free entry to the afterparty plus a drink card, and the celebration continues straight after the show with the band and fans coming together to toast 20 unforgettable years.
VIP Birthday Party Packages are strictly limited and expected to sell fast.
This is more than a concert.
It’s a once-in-a-lifetime birthday party.
It’s Queen Forever at their absolute peak.
And it’s happening at The Palais Theatre.
Do not miss the show everyone will be talking about.
