Radio Head Tour Australia
Key Takeaways
Radiohead are returning to Australia in May 2027 for their first shows here in 15 years, with an unusually generous run of dates across Perth, Melbourne and Sydney. If you’ve secured tickets — or you’re still hoping to — getting to and from the venue is worth locking in early, especially with thousands of fans converging on the same arena on the same night. Below is what we know about the tour and ticketing, followed by how to book a private car, chauffeur or limo service to every venue on the run.

Radiohead have taken a registration-first approach to this tour rather than a traditional on-sale, in an effort to reduce the impact of bots and bulk buyers. Registration and the first purchase window ran in mid-September 2026, with successful applicants notified by email and given a unique code and purchase link. Anyone not selected in the initial ballot is placed on a waitlist and may be offered access if further availability opens up.
Because this system changes as the tour progresses — and because we’re a transport company, not a ticketing agent — we’d always recommend checking the official Radiohead tour site or an authorised ticketing partner directly for the current state of registrations, waitlists and any resale. There is no official pre-sale outside the registration process.
What we can help with is everything that happens once you have a ticket in hand: getting to the venue, and getting home again afterwards, without the stress of surge pricing, parking, or hunting for a rideshare in a crowd of 20,000 people leaving at once.
Whether you’re calling it a limo service, a private car, a hire car or an executive transfer, the goal is the same: door-to-door travel that’s booked in advance, priced in advance, and waiting for you at the exact time you need it. That’s particularly valuable on tour nights — arenas like RAC Arena, Rod Laver Arena and Afterpay Arena see a huge surge in rideshare demand the moment doors open and the moment the encore ends, which is exactly when pricing on those platforms tends to spike.
With Cars on Demand, your fixed price is confirmed at booking — book early to lock in your rate before event-night pricing applies. There’s no last-minute surprise on your fare because the concert just finished at the same time as 20,000 other people’s.
Our fleet covers executive sedans for couples or solo concert-goers, through to larger vehicles for groups heading to the show together. See the full range on our fleet page.
Flying into Perth for the tour? Book a private Perth airport transfer straight to your hotel or directly to RAC Arena. We also cover concert-goers travelling in from surrounding areas including Fremantle, Joondalup, Rockingham, Mandurah, Midland and Armadale.
With six Melbourne shows on the schedule, plenty of interstate and international fans will be flying in. Book a Melbourne airport transfer timed to your flight, or a direct chauffeur service to Rod Laver Arena from suburbs such as St Kilda, Richmond, South Yarra, Brighton, Geelong and Dandenong.
Sydney’s six-night run is the longest of the tour. Whether you need a Sydney airport transfer or a dedicated Sydney airport limo service, Cars on Demand covers arrivals from all Sydney terminals as well as pickups from Parramatta, Bondi, North Sydney, Chatswood, Liverpool and Penrith on your way to the venue.

If you’re flying in from overseas or interstate for the tour, timing matters. Cars on Demand runs on RideMinder, powered by Cirium — our flight-tracking and dispatch technology monitors your flight in real time, so if you’re delayed or land early, your driver adjusts automatically. Once you’re through arrivals, you can track your driver’s location live through the Cars on Demand app, the same way you would with a rideshare — except your price was locked in when you booked, not when the app pinged your driver.
Booking is simple: register or download the app via carsondemand.link/register, request your concert-night transfer, and track everything from confirmation to pickup in one place.
Book a private chauffeur or limo service through Cars on Demand direct to RAC Arena, Rod Laver Arena or Afterpay Arena, with a fixed price confirmed at booking.
