Public Image Ltd Brisbane 2027: the confirmed date

Public Image Ltd is confirmed for Friday 22 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 Tuesday 12 May 2026.

The show is part of PiL Australia & NZ 2027. All the Brisbane dates we have verified for this run: Friday 22 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 Post-punk 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.

About The Tivoli, home of Public Image Ltd Brisbane 2027

The Brisbane show by Public Image Ltd is booked at The Tivoli. Knowing the room changes how you buy: on a standing floor you are choosing between arriving early or not, while in a seated venue the price tier decides your view.

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.

A rough guide to Brisbane rooms. Larger venues such as the Brisbane Entertainment Centre and Suncorp Stadium sell in sections, with floor, lower and upper levels priced differently. The outdoor sites — Riverstage and the South Bank forecourt — are mostly general admission, with the best spots taken by the people who queue. The Valley halls are standing rooms with limited balcony seating, so if you need to sit, check the ticket type carefully before buying.

Accessibility varies between new and heritage buildings. If you need wheelchair-accessible seating, a companion ticket under the Companion Card scheme, or other access arrangements, contact the ticket seller’s accessibility line rather than buying a standard ticket and hoping it can be swapped. Those allocations are limited, and they are usually handled separately from the main on-sale.

We do not publish seating maps we cannot verify; the official one appears on the ticketing page for this Concert event.

Tickets for Public Image Ltd in Brisbane: sale status

On sale since Tuesday 12 May 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 Public Image Ltd Brisbane tickets are likely to cost you

Think of the total cost of the night, not only the ticket. For Public Image Ltd 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.

Before you go: Public Image Ltd Brisbane checklist

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.

On busy weekend nights, allow extra time for rideshare pick-ups in the Valley.

• Ticket: make sure it is in your official app and loads without signal — reception at packed venues can be patchy.
• ID: bring photo ID if you plan to buy alcohol; Queensland venues check it.
• Bag: keep it small. Large bags are often refused, and cloakroom capacity is limited.
• Weather: in summer, sun protection and a light layer for storms; in winter, a jumper for outdoor shows after sunset.
• Transport: tap on with a go card or contactless card; the fare is a flat 50 cents on TransLink.

For Public Image Ltd at The Tivoli, arriving early has a real benefit if your ticket is general admission: the queue order decides where you stand. For seated tickets, arriving 30 to 45 minutes before the headliner is usually comfortable.

If the show is outdoors and lightning approaches, staff may pause the performance and ask the crowd to shelter or wait. That is standard practice in South East Queensland storm season, not a cancellation. Follow staff instructions and the official channels of the venue.

And if anything changes — time, date, venue — our subscribers receive an email the moment it is officially announced.

What to expect in the room? 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.
