Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane 2027: the confirmed date

Foy Vance & The Paper Kites is confirmed for Saturday 30 January 2027 at The Tivoli. This is a confirmed Concert date in Brisbane: the venue and day have been published by the official seller.

On sale since 1 September 2026.

The show is part of Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane 2027. All the Brisbane dates we have verified for this run: Saturday 30 January 2027. If a second or third night appears, it will be added here, and subscribers to the alert hear about it by email the same day.

Why does this matter for Brisbane in particular? International tours do not always include Queensland, and when they do, the city often gets fewer nights than Sydney or Melbourne. A single Brisbane date for a popular Rock act tends to be the one that sells out first on the Australian leg, simply because supply is lower. Fans from the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Toowoomba and the Northern Rivers all compete for the same tickets.

Before you buy, check three things on the official listing: the door and start times, the age restrictions (some Brisbane venues run 18+ shows, others are all-ages with conditions), and whether the tickets are mobile-only. We list only information that has been officially published. Anything still missing — support act, set times, extra releases — will be updated as it is announced.

The venue for Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane 2027: The Tivoli

Foy Vance & The Paper Kites plays The Tivoli.

The Tivoli is at 52 Costin Street, on the quieter northern side of Fortitude Valley. Fortitude Valley and Bowen Hills stations are both within roughly ten to fifteen minutes on foot, and buses along Wickham Street and Ann Street drop you closer. After the show many people walk back towards Brunswick Street for a late drink or to the station. Street parking is limited and time-restricted, so a commercial car park in the Valley or rideshare is more reliable if you are driving. On busy weekend nights, allow extra time for rideshare pick-ups in the Valley.

Brisbane’s concert venues each have a distinct character, and it helps to know which kind you are heading to. The arena at Boondall, in the northern suburbs, is a classic indoor bowl with a standing floor and tiered seats. Suncorp Stadium in Milton is the city’s big rectangular stadium, normally home to rugby league, and becomes a concert venue a handful of times a year. The Riverstage sits in a natural amphitheatre in the City Botanic Gardens, with lawn and terraced areas, and the QPAC forecourt at South Bank turns a cultural precinct into an open-air stage by the river.

In Fortitude Valley, The Fortitude Music Hall on Brunswick Street is a modern hall with a large floor and balcony, while The Tivoli on Costin Street is an older brick room that has hosted touring bands for decades. In Woolloongabba, The Princess Theatre is one of the oldest theatre buildings in the city.

Whatever the room, read the venue’s conditions of entry before the night: bag size, re-entry and age rules vary and are applied at the door, not negotiated there.

Tickets for Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane: sale status

On sale since 1 September 2026.

If the show is already on general sale, the main question is what remains. Check the official ticketing page directly rather than relying on screenshots: availability changes during the day as reserved carts expire and returned tickets reappear. When a listing says “sold out”, Brisbane shows sometimes reopen in small releases, especially in the final week as production seats are freed.

If the presales have not opened yet, prepare in advance. Make sure your Ticketek or Ticketmaster account is active, your payment card is saved and you know which presale you qualify for — fan club, promoter, card or telco. Join the online queue a few minutes before opening time; the order is often randomised for those already waiting at the start.

Note the time zone. Queensland does not change its clocks, so between October and April an on-sale advertised for Sydney time opens an hour earlier in Brisbane. Our alert always states Queensland time.

Resale: use the official resale or transfer function of the original seller. Tickets from strangers on social media are a common source of scams around big Concert dates in South East Queensland, and a fake ticket cannot be fixed at the gate.

What Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane tickets are likely to cost you

Think of the total cost of the night, not only the ticket. For Foy Vance & The Paper Kites at The Tivoli, indicative prices for a show of this size range from around A$79 at the cheap end, through A$149 for a comfortable mid-range seat, to A$219 or more for the best positions. Premium and hospitality packages can go above A$279. These are ranges seen for comparable events, not the official price list, which is set by the promoter at on-sale.

Then add the practical costs. Fees are applied per order or per ticket. Travel within Brisbane on TransLink is a flat 50 cents per trip, which keeps public transport cheap; a late-night rideshare from Boondall or Milton during the rush can cost far more. Food and drinks inside venues are priced like any event venue, so many people eat beforehand in the Valley, at South Bank or along Caxton Street.

If you are coming from regional Queensland or northern New South Wales, factor in a night of accommodation; hotels near the CBD fill up on big concert weekends.

Prices can change after release, and extra tiers are sometimes added. Subscribers are told when that happens.

On the night: Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane practical guide

The Tivoli is at 52 Costin Street, on the quieter northern side of Fortitude Valley. Fortitude Valley and Bowen Hills stations are both within roughly ten to fifteen minutes on foot, and buses along Wickham Street and Ann Street drop you closer. After the show many people walk back towards Brunswick Street for a late drink or to the station. Street parking is limited and time-restricted, so a commercial car park in the Valley or rideshare is more reliable if you are driving. On busy weekend nights, allow extra time for rideshare pick-ups in the Valley.

Timing matters. Doors usually open an hour or more before the support act, and headliners in Australia commonly start between 8.30 and 9pm — but every tour is different, and set times are often only published in the last week. Check the official listing on the day.

The weather is part of a Brisbane concert. In the hotter months, from around November to March, days are humid and storms can build in the afternoon. For outdoor shows, bring a light rain jacket rather than an umbrella, which many venues do not allow, and drink water while queueing. In winter, Brisbane evenings are mild, but an open-air venue by the river can still feel cool after dark.

Plan the trip home before you leave. Trains to and from the city run through Central and Roma Street, the main hubs, and big events often bring extra services, but the last trains on weeknights can be earlier than you expect. Taxi ranks and rideshare pick-up areas near large venues get very busy right after the encore; walking ten minutes away before booking often helps.

Finally, keep your phone charged. Most Brisbane venues now scan mobile tickets at the gate.

Seeing Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane live

In Brisbane that means a sweaty Tivoli floor or a big Boondall arena roar, from a city that gave the world The Saints and Powderfinger.

The Foy Vance & The Paper Kites Brisbane 2027 run brings Foy Vance & The Paper Kites to The Tivoli, and the Brisbane date is the one most Queenslanders will travel for. We do not publish predicted setlists; we prefer to show only what has actually happened. If Foy Vance & The Paper Kites has played Brisbane before, our history table further down lists verified past shows, with venues and dates.

Is the date official? Yes. It takes place on Saturday 30 January 2027 at The Tivoli, Brisbane, and that date has been published by the official ticket seller.

Brisbane’s calendar in 2027 has a good deal around this show. Other artists on fans’ radar for the city this year include:

Rodrigo y Gabriela Brisbane 2027 · Public Image Ltd Brisbane 2027 · Clutch Brisbane 2027 · Propagandhi Brisbane 2027 · 5 Seconds of Summer Brisbane 2027 · AC/DC Brisbane 2027

Each link goes to its own page with the date, venue and status — confirmed or still to be announced. Setting several alerts is free, and each one only sends an email when there is something concrete: a presale code, an on-sale time, a new date or a change.

A last tip: if you cannot get tickets for this show, an artist from the list above playing a smaller Valley room the same month can be a very good night too, often with less competition for tickets. Smaller rooms in Fortitude Valley and Woolloongabba also tend to sell out more slowly than arena dates, which gives you time to compare.
