This story was updated May 2 to reflect the addition of second and “final” Perth, Adelaide and Newcastle shows added to “meet demand.”
Jim Jefferies is heading out for a homecoming arena tour.
The rock star Australian comedian and TV personality sets his national “‘Em What They Want Tour for August,” produced through concerts specialist Frontier Touring and presented by Triple M and Channel 7.
Jefferies will bring his latest stage show to a mix of metro and regional spots, now scheduled to kick off Aug. 1 with the first of two dates at Perth’s HBF Stadium.
The tour then works its way east, visiting venues in Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne, Newcastle, Wollongong, Sydney, Canberra, Brisbane and wrapping up Sunday, Aug. 18 at Townsville Entertainment & Convention Centre.
The Sydney-born, Perth-raised funnyman last toured these parts in 2022 for 27 sold-out shows across Australia and New Zealand.

With his freewheeling use of profanity (and a predilection for the C-word) and sharp political satire, Jefferies’ career blew up when his “gun control” sketch went viral on YouTube.
Today, he’s one of the most in-demand comedians on the planet, in a growing space for stand-up, playing world’s biggest rooms, including Madison Square Garden and London’s The O2, and having them laugh in the aisles at Edinburgh Fringe, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Reading and Leeds, and Glastonbury.
He’s seamlessly made his move onto the small screen with nine Netflix specials; “The Jim Jefferies Show,” which ran for three seasons from 2017 to 2019; and the hit homegrown game show “The 1% Club”, which nabbed a total national audience of 1,520,000 for Channel 7 in February 2024.
