Indian superstar Diljit Dosanjh has made history as the first Indian artist to headline a Sydney stadium concert. He drew a capacity crowd to CommBank Stadium on 26 October in Parramatta as part of his ongoing AURA Tour 2025.
The performance featured a live band, dancers and large LED backdrops, with a setlist built around his Punjabi chart hits. Dosanjh performed chart-topping blockbusters including Lover, G.O.A.T., Born to Shine, Kufar and Charmer, along with newer tracks that have recorded high global streams.
His next performance will be in Brisbane, with this leg of the AURA 2025 tour also including scheduled stops in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. Besides being one of India’s most commercially successful singers globally, he is also an actor and film producer.
Indian music acts have been recording sustained traction in Australia, with multiple concerts selling out large venues across cities. In recent years Sonu Nigam headlined the Sydney Opera House, marking one of the rare occasions an Indian playback singer has played that stage, while A. R. Rahman filled Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne.
