Lorna Shore Announce Biggest Australian Tour Yet
Lorna Shore will return to Australia this October for arena headline shows alongside Whitechapel and The Acacia Strain.
Lorna Shore will return to Australia this October for their biggest headline shows here to date, joined by Whitechapel and The Acacia Strain.
The New Jersey deathcore outfit will hit arenas and large theatres across five Australian cities before heading to New Zealand for their first ever shows there. Whitechapel will appear on all Australian dates, while The Acacia Strain will support the entire run.
Lorna Shore’s rise over the past few years has pushed the band well beyond deathcore’s underground roots, with releases like ...And I Return To Nothingness and I Feel The Everblack Festering Within Me helping turn the group into one of modern heavy music’s biggest crossover success stories. Their previous Australian headline run sold out entirely before they returned again for Good Things Festival last year.
Whitechapel also return off the back of their 2025 album Hymns in Dissonance, continuing a two-decade run as one of deathcore’s defining bands, while The Acacia Strain bring their blend of sludge, hardcore and crushing metallic chaos back to Australia after touring here in 2024.
