For over 25 years, THE USED have ticked off a multitude of milestones, with their influential career shaping the landscape both in and beyond emo and alternative rock. But in 2026, THE USED will tick off yet another monumental first in their extremely storied career, set to perform for the first time ever on the legendary stage of the Sydney Opera House for one unforgettable black tie event, complete with a full symphony orchestra and choir on Sunday 29 March 2026.
This unprecedented night, titled A Mid Summer Night's Symphony, will offer Australian fans a chance to experience THE USED live in action as you've never seen them before, with the news guaranteed to delight fans far and wide; and the excitement is entirely echoed by the band themselves. "The Sydney Opera House is one of the most prestigious venues in the world. And we will be playing there with full orchestra and choir!" enthuses THE USED vocalist Bert McCracken. "This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for The Used and we couldn’t be more excited. Can’t wait to see you there!"
This extraordinary 2026 show will follow THE USED's largely sold out colossal 25th anniversary down under tour in August and September this year which showcased 2002's self-titled album, 2004's In Love And Death and 2007's Lies For The Liars played in full on consecutive nights in Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Fremantle. But next March, the band will mount their most expansive Australian performance to date with the orchestral additions guaranteed to add some ravishing magic to multiple fan-favourites across THE USED's extensive back catalogue.
A band who defined the sound of a generation through their balanced chaos and melodic prowess, THE USED emerged in the early 2000s in Utah, rapidly rising to fame via the 2002 release of their self-titled debut album. Since then, THE USED have ticked off four Billboard 200 Top 10 debuts and 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles, while tracks like The Taste of Ink, Pretty Handsome Awkward, The Bird and the Worm and I Caught Fire have generated mass singalongs at the likes of Vans Warped Tour, in theatres and club shows across the globe, and festivals far and wide.
A band equally fluent in penning crowd-pleasers that aren't afraid to embrace savagery and raw grit, THE USED have never wavered or rested on their laurels over the years, with their legacy undeniably continuing to grow to and beyond this very day, with Kerrang praising the band's impact on fellow scene icons, declaring "The Used's colorfully unhinged post-hardcore became a vital part of the scene responsible for breaking bands like My Chemical Romance [and] Fall Out Boy". It's no fluke that THE USED's longevity has continued to flourish, with the band's honesty, integrity and freedom fuelling every inch of their art as well as their genuine connection with their fans; and it's a fanbase that not only spans the globe, but also generations as THE USED continue to exponentially find new listeners, young and old while retaining the OG's who have been there from the very beginning.
Having toured extensively throughout their career, THE USED will close out 2025 touring alongside Papa Roach in North America, while 2026 will see them tick off Emo's Not Dead Cruise, Sonic Temple and a hotly-anticipated performance next October with My Chemical Romance. Prior to their monumental 25th anniversary tour earlier this year, THE USED have logged multiple Aussie runs since the mid 2000s, with Australian Music Scene proclaiming of one of their many recent Melbourne shows: "this tour isn't just about nostalgia - it's a proper thank you to fans who've stuck around for two decades. And judging by the sweat, the screams and the smiles, these songs till burn just as hard as they did back then."
Prepare for an unforgettable black tie event for the ages at one of Australia's most renowned venues in 2026; tickets for THE USED's Sydney Opera House performance next March will definitely not last long!
