About this event

Sydney's genre-defying rock titans, HELLIONS, are celebrating the 10th anniversary of their ARIA-nominated, career-defining album, Opera Oblivia, with a massive Australian tour in May 2026.This is the album that smashed expectations, redefined the boundaries of Australian heavy music, and delivered a phenomenal #4 debut on the worldwide ARIA Charts. Declared a "genre great" by the wider music community for its sheer theatricality and ambition, Opera Oblivia cemented Hellions' reputation for innovation and audacious songwriting. From the explosive, anthemic hooks of 'Quality of Life' and 'Thresher' to the intricate, dramatic beauty of its theatrical movements, this record is a modern classic.Join the band as they perform the iconic, critically-acclaimed album in its entirety, delivering the full, cathartic experience of their "exhilarating and confident" (Rolling Stone) opus. Prepare for a night of passionate, high-energy performance as Hellions bring the Opera Oblivia grand visio
