Billie Eilish kicked off her highly anticipated Australian tour with a sold-out concert in Brisbane on February 18, 2025, at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.

This tour, titled 'Hit Me Hard and Soft', follows her North American leg that wrapped up in late 2024, and includes performances in Sydney and Melbourne before heading to Europe.

Fans demonstrated their dedication by camping outside the venue, creating a mini tent city as they awaited the concert.

Ahead of the tour, Eilish made a low-key entrance in Melbourne on February 17, blending into the crowd with an oversized hoodie, sunglasses, and a face mask.

The tour will feature 12 sold-out shows across major Australian cities, with Ashnikko announced as the support act for these dates.

Following her Australian tour, Eilish will embark on her European leg starting April 23, 2025, visiting several major cities before concluding in Dublin in July.

Eilish's setlist for the opening night included a mix of new songs and fan favorites like 'Bad Guy', 'When the Party’s Over', and her Oscar-winning track 'What Was I Made For?'

The concert was marked by a visually stunning production, featuring a unique stage layout and impressive laser displays that drew comparisons to iconic performances by Pink Floyd and Muse.

Despite battling sinus issues and jet lag, Eilish delivered an energetic performance that resonated emotionally with her fans.

This tour marks Eilish's return to Australia since her last performance in 2022, further emphasizing her connection to the country.

A highlight of the night was the performance of 'Bad Guy', which creatively incorporated sounds from Brisbane's pedestrian crossings.

During her performance, Eilish expressed gratitude to her fans and acknowledged the difficult state of affairs in the US, reinforcing the strong bond she shares with her audience.
