Fresh off the back of the iHeartRadio Music Festival this weekend, iHeartRadio announces James Blunt as the premiere artist to perform in Australia’s iHeartRadio Theatre.

Presented by MixFM, international recording artist James Blunt will perform hits from his career at this exclusive event at The Star in Sydney on October 4, as well as songs from his new album Moon Landing which is released on October 18. 

Tickets are only available for this Australian-first event by registering here. Fans who register also have the chance to win a private meet and greet with James Blunt, simply by signing up to iHeartRadio. 

A firm fixture in the US live music scene, the Los Angeles and New York iHeartRadio Theatres have included performances by some of the biggest names in the music industry including Bruno Mars, Usher, Alicia Keys, Justin Bieber, One Republic and Lady Antebellum. 

“It’s fantastic that we have James Blunt to launch Australia’s very first iHeartRadio Theatre Event here in Sydney”, says Duncan Campbell, ARN’s National Content Director. “We’re looking forward to bringing more world class live music to Australian audiences by combining the power of ARN’s radio assets and iHeartRadio to create more iHeartRadio Theatre experiences for our listeners”. 

Recently ARN launched the iHeartRadio app on iOS and Android, released ahead of schedule due to overwhelming public demand of the online service and the app rocketed straight to No. 1 on the music app charts. The iHeartRadio mobile app has already amassed more than 226 million downloads in the U.S., making it one of the most popular apps ever.
