About This Event
Punjabi-Canadian superstar Karan Aujla brings his P-Pop Culture World Tour to Rod Laver Arena on Tuesday 18 August 2026, with the show starting at 8:00 PM. Melbourne gets two consecutive arena nights, 18 and 19 August.
P-Pop Culture is a fusion of Punjabi pop and hip-hop that celebrates Aujla's roots while pushing the music into new territory, balancing heartfelt melodies, sharp lyricism and genre-defying production. Born in India and moving to Canada at 17, Aujla first worked as a songwriter for other Punjabi artists before his 2018 breakthrough Don't Worry; his debut album BacTHAfuKUP reached number 6 on Spotify's Global Chart, and 2024 brought his first Canadian arena tour and the success of Making Memories. He is supported on this tour by Canadian producer and composer Ikwinder Singh, known as Ikky, who has amassed more than two billion streams, co-founded 4N Records and its 4N Nights series, and is creative director of 91 North Records.
Running times beyond the 8:00 PM start are listed as TBC, including gates, set times and the finish. Entry is via Gate 3 (Garden Square) and Gate 4 (Olympic Boulevard). Public transport is the recommended way to get there; parking at the Eastern Plaza Car Park (Entrance D, Olympic Boulevard) should be pre-booked and bookings close at midnight the night before, with accessible parking pre-booked through Ticketek. Download tickets to your digital wallet before you arrive, keep bags to A4 size or smaller (cloaking is available via Kia Arena or Show Court 3), and note that all retail outlets are cashless. The show may include flashing lights, lasers, strobes, haze and pyrotechnics.
Adult tickets start at $99.90 and run to $249.90 through Ticketek, before fees.
