Lime Cordiale – The Love Is Off The Table Tour
Lime Cordiale are returning to their roots for a one-off tour to remind everybody who they are! For a band that built their live reputation on playing in small rooms, with the fans so close you can see the band sweat, it’s the perfect response to their 2024 sold-out arena shows, which celebrated their third album, ENOUGH OF THE SWEET TALK. For those who remember and those about to discover, sweaty, packed rooms, the kind that has taken Oliver and Louis around the world, are the perfect way to enjoy the magic of a lime cordial show. Lime Cordiale has amassed over 500 million streams on Spotify, 40 million Apple Music streams, with YouTube views exceeding 30 million. Their infectious performances and genuine, generous interactions with their fans have made them one of Australia’s most in-demand acts, playing to wildly enthusiastic crowds across Australia and overseas. We are proudly partnering with FEAT. so that a $1 Solar Slice from every ticket will fund tour decarbonisation efforts and support local ocean restoration projects—helping to regenerate our coastal areas and campaign for stronger laws to protect our salty backyard.
Seems like you've caught us on an R&R day!
