Sting will return to South Australia for the first time since 2015, this time on his critically acclaimed My Songs tour.

In what will be a one-night-only performance at the Entertainment Centre promoter Nicole Hart said fans can expect to hear songs like Englishman In New York, Every Breath You Take, Roxanne, Message In A Bottle and many more.

She said Sting would be accompanied by an electric rock ensemble, with Special Guest Joe Sumner on his first solo Australian tour.

The concert has been praised by critics, following a sold out six-night residency at the London Palladium.

The Times reported “Sting remains an undeniably skilled performer with a gold-plated back catalogue”.

General public tickets go on sale on Friday, September 16 at 11am.
