Tickets go on sale on March 20 from 2pm.
Styles recently revealed a pivotal Australian influence on his music courtesy of his mother soundtracking his childhood with Savage Garden.
“I grew up listening to them, my mum used to listen to them all the time, it was some of the first music I ever listened to so,” he said.
“It’s one of those I can go back to if I haven’t listened to it for years and still know all the words, the songs I used to sing in the car with my mum. It definitely holds a place in my heart.”
While the Love On Tour setlist will be bolstered by a clutch of hit singles from his two solo records including recent piano ballad Falling and previous releases Adore You, Lights Up and Watermelon Sugar.
Styles also hinted he may include Lizzo’s Juice which he covered for a recent performance in London and again with the American pop gamechanger at one of her American shows.
With coronavirus already affecting the cancellation of the Miley Cyrus bushfire benefit scheduled this weekend, Styles fans will be crossing everything the health crisis will have abated by late November when their heart-throb is due to kick off his tour.
