Harry’s House is now stadium sized.

Three months after announcing he had cancelled his Australian arena tour, pop superstar Harry Styles has made good on his promise to deliver new shows — and this time he’s joining the ranks of Justin Bieber and Ed Sheeran to play our biggest sports stadiums.

The Love On Tour 2023 shows will kick off at HBF Park in Perth on February 20 before heading to Marvel Stadium in Melbourne on February 24, Gold Coast’s Metricon Stadium on February 28 and Sydney’s Accor Stadium on March 4.

Harry Styles will play Australian stadiums in 2023.

Styles had been due to play the Australian leg of his world tour in November 2020 with tickets for seven arena shows going on in March 2020 just as the pandemic hit.

Fans desperately held on to their tickets until January when Styles announced they could not be rescheduled for this year.

“To everyone in Australia and New Zealand. I can’t believe it’s been four years. I can’t wait to see you again but unfortunately it is just not possible at this time. I will be sharing news soon about new shows. I love you all so much, I miss you and I can’t wait to see you,” Styles said in January.

The stadium upgrade comes as he celebrated a No.1 debut in Australia for As It Was, the first single from his third album Harry’s House which will be released on May 20.

The former One Direction star has been phenomenally successful since launching his solo career with his self-titled record in 2017, following up with the indefatigable second album Fine Line which has spent 122 weeks in the ARIA top 50 here and was back in the top 10 this week thanks to the launch of As It Was.

Styles wowed tens of thousands of fans with his headlining performance at the marquee Coachella festival, strutting his stuff like a human disco ball in a custom-designed Gucci sequined jumpsuit.
