The lights go down, the crowd roars, and from the first note you know — this is Queen, as it should be. On Friday 24 April 2026, the majestic State Theatre, Sydney will come alive when Queen Forever bring their Greatest Hits Tour – 20th Anniversary to the stage for one unforgettable night of rock, theatre, and pure Queen magic.
Celebrating 20 years as Australia’s most electrifying Queen tribute, Queen Forever have thrilled audiences across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia with their breathtaking authenticity and showmanship. Now, they’re marking their milestone year with their biggest and most spectacular tour ever — and Sydney, you’re in for something truly special.
From the moment Gareth Hill struts onto the stage as Freddie Mercury, the illusion is complete. The voice, the energy, the humour, the flamboyance — it’s all there. Alongside him, Scott Bastian channels Brian May’s soaring guitar tone, Brad Hodgkinson powers through Roger Taylor’s thunderous drumming, Darryn McLaughlin nails John Deacon’s legendary bass grooves, and Danny Oakhill brings the lush harmonies and keyboards that complete Queen’s unmistakable sound. Together, they don’t just perform the songs — they become Queen.
This is not just another tribute show. It’s a full-scale production that captures the heart, spectacle, and passion of a Queen concert at its peak. With dazzling visuals, lighting, and crowd interaction, every anthem becomes an experience. When “Bohemian Rhapsody” begins, the entire theatre becomes a choir. When “We Will Rock You” echoes through the walls, you’ll feel the floor shake. And when “We Are the Champions” closes the night, the entire audience will rise as one.
Expect all the hits — Somebody to Love, Radio Ga Ga, Don’t Stop Me Now, Killer Queen, Another One Bites the Dust, I Want to Break Free — alongside rotating deep cuts that keep the setlist fresh for every show.
As 2026 also marks 50 years since Queen first toured Australia, this concert is both a celebration and a tribute — a stunning recreation of the power, passion, and brilliance of one of rock’s most legendary bands.
