# Playlunch Set For Regional Tour **Tour Announcement** — On Your Markus **Published:** 17 November 2025 **Author:** Markus Hamence **Source:** https://onyourmarkus.au/tour-announcements/playlunch-set-for-regional-tour/ --- **Playlunch follow up sold out national *****Sex Ed *****album tour with extensive 29-date regional run** Big lunch is BACK! Melbourne bogan-funk favourites **Playlunch **are set to bring their nostalgia-packed, good-time-guaranteed live shows across the east coast on a mammoth 29 date run in late 2025 and into 2026. Kicking off with an already sold out show in Belgrave, the ***Sex Ed *****Regional Tour** will hit headline and festival stages across VIC, TAS, QLD, NSW, WA, and ACT from December  through to May. Victorian fans who missed out on the band’s Melbourne shows at 170 Russell, The Leadbeater and their surprise late night sets at The Night Cat will have ample opportunity to catch Playlunch in action throughout the first half of the year, with dates in Warrnambool, Phillip Island, Bendigo, Ballarat, Frankston, Lorne, St Kilda, South Morang, Traralgon, and Barwon Heads.  ![Playlurah logo in white lettering on a bright yellow background.](https://media.onyourmarkus.au/originals/33740/400648584_659118056328598_4714510186891036447_n.jpg) The band will venture back across the country to Western Australia, with dates scheduled on NYE, before heading back in January for performances in Bunbury, Margaret River, and Albany, as well as Queensland stops on the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast. New South Wales lunchers can catch Playlunch in Byron Bay, Albury, Gosford, Sydney, Newcastle, Avalon Beach, Wollongong, and Archies Creek, and Canberra will be treated to a one-off show. Playlunch are also scheduled to return to Tasmania for Good Gumnuts Festival, plus a headline show in Hobart.  The regional run follows Playlunch’s completely sold out headline tour in September, where they played their biggest headline shows to date across the country. Reflecting on the tour and looking to the future, Playlunch say:  *“It’s been such a wild 3 months since we put out our sophomore album Sex Ed, and the response has been insane. The cap city album tour was absolutely bonkers – we’re still pinching ourselves that all those shows SOLD OUT so quickly (in such MASSIVE venues…what the helly) and the response from people was just wonderful. We also know how many people weren’t able to make it to one of those gigs or missed out on a ticket, SO……* *We’re announcing our biggest headline run to date across regional locations around Australia (with a few festivals and special exclusive shows sprinkled in for good measure!). Touring regionally has always been such a big priority for our band since the very start, and getting around to all the people who continue to support us. To be able to keep the Sex Ed train rolling is so special! We’ll be playing a whole heap of the new tracks from the record live for the very first time in these locations (can’t wait to show you!), as well as all the favs from our debut album.”* Having just signed with international booking agency Mint Talent Group in North America, don’t sleep on the chance to see Playlunch in action before the rest of the world catches on. *“These will be the last Australian shows for quite a while as we are looking to see what the rest of the world has in store for us; so we hope you are able to grab a ticket and make it a night to remember. Everyone is in for an absolute treat, with a show of nonstop dancing and singing across the whole lineups!”* [Watch on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/embed/7PTvxw4fc9M) Playlunch’s *Sex Ed *album, released in August via ABC Music, was immediately adored, debuting at #7 on the ARIA Australian Artist Charts and cracking the Top 5 for physical sales.

A wild blend of retro dance music, late ‘90s/early 2000s Aussie nostalgia and unapologetic suburban swagger, Playlunch aren’t just riding a wave—they’re creating their own: a loud, proud, and irresistibly fun genre they call **Bogan Funk**. Since bursting onto the scene in **April 2022**, Playlunch have gone from a cult curiosity to one of Australia’s most exciting and talked-about new acts. Their **2023 debut album, *****Who’s Ready For A Good Time?***, laid the foundations with viral TikTok moments, triple j High Rotation, and a sold-out 500-person shows across Australia – but Playlunch aren’t just a viral moment.  In an industry facing tough economic headwinds, Playlunch have defied the odds, powered by a fiercely loyal and ever-growing fanbase. Their 2024 showcase at **BIGSOUND** cemented their reputation as one of Australia’s most exciting emerging acts, with eyes now firmly set on their next era. **2025** has seen Playlunch cement their place in the national spotlight with the release of their sophomore album ***Sex Ed*** — a bold, cheeky, and sonically irresistible evolution of their Bogan Funk manifesto. The standout single **“Keith”** became a breakout hit, racking up over **3 million streams **across DSP’s, **10 million+ views **across TikTok and Instagram Reels, and earning **triple j Feature Track **alongsidehigh rotation and community radio saturation across the country. Thanks to its hilarious yet heartfelt tribute to every middle-aged Aussie bloke you’ve ever known, **“Keith”** struck a chord far beyond their core fanbase—spawning thousands of memes, fan videos, drag performances and even unofficial pub karaoke nights. The track reached **#1 on the Spotify Viral 50 (AU)** and helped propel ***Sex Ed*** into national charts and end-of-year “Best Of” lists.  Playlunch’s insane live show has made them a must-see act across the country. Across **NYE on the Hill, Party in the Paddock, Hyper Festival **(to name a few)**, **anda headline tour of packed-out 1200 CAP venues, they’ve built a reputation for turning any crowd into a sweaty, laughing, dancing mess. Wherever they go, Playlunch take nostalgic school disco and amp it up to full-blown festival euphoria. **Follow Playlunch** **[Facebook](https://crowdfavourite.us21.list-manage.com/track/click?u=915b8589840cd888c06c1dbc2&id=5e3f54f35f&e=4b1ec3ff0f)** **[Instagram](https://crowdfavourite.us21.list-manage.com/track/click?u=915b8589840cd888c06c1dbc2&id=5e3f54f35f&e=4b1ec3ff0f)** **[YouTube](https://crowdfavourite.us21.list-manage.com/track/click?u=915b8589840cd888c06c1dbc2&id=6e9e76b92f&e=4b1ec3ff0f)** ![Six band members in matching patterned jumpsuits pose against a bright yellow backdrop.](https://media.onyourmarkus.au/originals/33738/480358270_938079665099101_8679929971732499795_n.jpg)
