One of the world’s biggest podcasters, Chris Williamson, is bringing his ‘Mostly Wise Tour’ to Australia and New Zealand in 2026.

Following the success of his sold-out North American live tour, the British podcaster, writer, and host of “Modern Wisdom” will hit theatres Down Under in March and April. Kicking off on Thursday, March 19th in Sydney, Williamson will make his way through Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, and Brisbane, before heading to New Zealand for shows in Christchurch and Auckland. This tour leg will finish up with a show in Bali on April 1st.

His “Modern Wisdom” podcast dives into everything from self-improvement and philosophy, to human behaviour and the weird corners of the internet. Since 2018, he’s sat down with world-leading psychologists, neuroscientists, comedians, and cultural commentators, distilling complex ideas into accessible insights.

It has surpassed one billion downloads with an audience of more than seven million, across over 1,000 episodes.

The ‘Mostly Wise Tour’ offers an evening of insights, face-palm clarity, and unexpected discoveries. Audiences can expect a show that is deeply reflective, gut-punchingly honest, and unapologetically points the finger at the lessons you need to hear but have been ignoring.

Whether you’re a long-time listener or just stepping into the world of personal growth, this tour invites you to get curious, challenge your assumptions, and walk away with a fresh perspective.

“After thousands of hours speaking with some of the world’s sharpest minds, the biggest lesson I’ve learned is that no one really has it all figured out, least of all me,” said Williamson.

“’Mostly Wise’ is about embracing that reality, exploring the questions that actually matter, and laughing at the ways we get it wrong. It’s not self-help, it’s self-honesty. I can’t wait to bring that to life with everyone across Australia, New Zealand, and Bali. This stuff absolutely rules. Hopefully, everyone leaves feeling called out, seen, reassured, and a bit more wise.”

Tickets will go on sale at 9am (local) on Thursday, November 20th. A presale will run from 9am (local) on Tuesday, November 18th. You can register for presale here.
