1 in 5 Naadha Gama Melbourne Tickets Sold Interstate in Landmark Moment for Sri Lankan Events

Melbourne — Ticket sales for Naadha Gama Melbourne 2026 have marked a significant milestone for Sri Lankan live music events held in Australia, with 20% of tickets sold to audiences residing outside the state of Victoria.

Interstate ticketing data shows demand led by New South Wales, followed by Queensland and South Australia, with further purchases recorded from other states and territories. For a Sri Lankan concert staged overseas, this level of interstate attendance is regarded as unprecedented and reflects growing national interest within the Australian Sri Lankan community.

The concert will take place at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, one of Australia’s most recognised outdoor performance venues, known for hosting major international productions.

Tickets for the event are being sold through Ticketek in association with Arts Centre Melbourne, marking a first for a Sri Lankan music event in Australia.

With strong interstate attendance and national-level interest, Naadha Gama Melbourne is shaping up to be the largest celebration of Sri Lankan music ever held overseas, representing a defining moment for the community and its cultural presence on the international stage.
