***TICKETS ON SALE FRI 26TH SEPT @ 10AM***The lights dim, the crowd roars, and from the first thunderous chord you know — this is Queen, as it should be. In 2026, Queen Forever marks 20 years on stage with their Greatest Hits Tour – 20th Anniversary, and the honour of launching this huge Australia & New Zealand tour belongs to Tasmania.
On Thursday 29 January at Country Club Casino in Launceston, Friday 30 January at Burnie Arts Centre, and Saturday 31 January at Wrest Point Casino in Hobart, Tasmanian audiences will be the very first in the world to experience this brand-new show. These three nights aren’t just concerts — they are the grand opening of Queen Forever’s biggest and most spectacular tour to date.
From the very first note, audiences will be transported into the world of Freddie Mercury and Queen’s legendary music. Gareth Hill’s portrayal of Freddie is spine-tingling — the voice, the moves, the flamboyance — he channels the icon with astonishing authenticity. Alongside him, Scott Bastian ignites Brian May’s soaring guitar solos, Brad Hodgkinson thunders through Roger Taylor’s rhythms, Darryn McLaughlin drives John Deacon’s bass lines, and Danny Oakhill layers lush keyboards and harmonies. Together, they don’t just play Queen — they become Queen.
This is more than a tribute show — it’s a full-scale theatrical event. With dazzling lights, immersive video, and powerful crowd interaction, every anthem becomes a spectacle. When the opening notes of Bohemian Rhapsody ring out, the entire room becomes a choir. When We Will Rock You stomps into life, the walls shake. And when We Are the Champions closes the night, you’ll feel the spine-tingling energy of a truly great live performance.
The setlist features the anthems that defined generations — Somebody to Love, Radio Ga Ga, Don’t Stop Me Now, Killer Queen, Another One Bites the Dust — plus rotating deep cuts that make every show unique.
For 20 years, Queen Forever has thrilled audiences across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia. Now, Tasmania has the first opportunity to see why they are hailed as the most entertaining Queen tribute in the world.
This isn’t just another concert — it’s the launch of a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of Queen’s music, theatre, and enduring magic. Don’t miss your chance to be there at the very beginning — book now for Launceston, Burnie, or Hobart and witness history as Queen Forever’s 20th Anniversary Greatest Hits Tour begins here in Tasmania!
