iKON Fourever World Tour: Dates, Tickets & Venue (Sydney)

A Friday night in Moore Park

Six members, one heritage hall, one Sydney night. The iKON Fourever World Tour comes to the Hordern Pavilion on Friday, November 13, 2026. Melbourne follows two days later, on the Sunday.

Picture the crowd that collects on Driver Avenue on a show night. Fan banners get rolled into tote bags and photocards are swapped on the footpath. Lightsticks are tested against the pavilion’s pale wall. The Hordern is a 1920s exhibition hall, so the space you walk into feels like a broad, high-roofed shed, not a modern arena bowl.

Who iKON are now

The group’s line-up has changed a lot since the start. iKON debuted under YG Entertainment in 2015 and came out of the survival shows WIN and Mix & Match. Their 2018 single “Love Scenario” became one of the biggest K-pop songs of that year in Korea, and kids and office workers alike sang it.

B.I left in 2019. The current six are Jay, Song, Bobby, DK, Ju-ne and Chan, who left YG and signed with 143 Entertainment in 2023. A world tour this far into their career reads as a reunion with fans: much of the Sydney audience has followed them since the “Rhythm Ta” and “My Type” years. iKON fans call themselves iKONIC.

The set list for the night isn’t part of what’s known here. So treat any song as a hope, not a promise.

The Hordern Pavilion itself

The building is older than you’d expect. The Hordern was built in 1924 for the Royal Agricultural Society, back when the Sydney Royal Easter Show was held on these Moore Park grounds. It’s heritage-listed, and from the outside it still looks like a show-ground hall: long, symmetrical and pale-rendered.

Inside, it’s one of Sydney’s mid-sized concert rooms, with a capacity in the thousands rather than the tens of thousands. That size is why K-pop and touring indie acts like it. Even from the back of the floor, you’re close enough to see faces without staring at the screens all night.

Getting to Driver Avenue

Most people come by light rail. The L2 Randwick and L3 Kingsford lines both stop at Moore Park on Anzac Parade. From there, a short walk through the park leads to the Entertainment Quarter and the Hordern.

Other ways in:

• On foot from Central: about 25–30 minutes via Foveaux Street through Surry Hills, or along the Moore Park paths.
• Bus: Anzac Parade routes run from Central and the city past Moore Park.
• Car: the Entertainment Quarter has parking, but it fills up on nights when the nearby stadiums host games too.

The Sydney Cricket Ground and Allianz Stadium sit right next door. When a match and a concert share a night, the light rail and Anzac Parade get busy in both directions.

Lightsticks, chants and the Konbat glow

K-pop crowds come with their own customs. iKON’s official lightstick, nicknamed the Konbat, is a hammer-shaped wand. A hall full of them turns the Hordern’s dark floor into one sheet of colour. Fans who own one tend to put in fresh batteries and pair it with the app before leaving home, because there’s no signal to spare once inside.

Fan chants are the other ritual. On the big singles, iKONIC shout members’ names in set orders between lines. Many first-timers learn them from fan-made chant guides online in the weeks before. Joining in, even badly, is half the experience.

Banner projects, where fans hold up printed slogans during a chosen song, are often organised by Australian fan accounts. Paper slips sometimes get handed out in the queue.

Doing the Hordern the way regulars do

A few habits make the night easier:

• Merch first: K-pop merch lines at the Hordern tend to be longest just before doors. Many fans head for the stand as soon as it opens, or leave it until after the show.
• Pay by card: Sydney venues are mostly cashless at the bar and merch desk. Contactless card and phone payment are normal.
• Bags: big bags and professional cameras are usually restricted at Australian concert venues. Fans travel light with a small crossbody bag.
• Tipping: it isn’t expected at the bar, which is standard in Australia.
• Leaving: after the encore, crowds pour toward the Moore Park light rail stop. Some fans walk to Oxford Street in Paddington, or down to Surry Hills, and catch transport there.

Ticket links for Hordern Pavilion shows appear on the venue’s own event listings. Fans usually stick to those official channels rather than resale posts, which have been a known scam risk around K-pop tours.

Before and after, nearby

There’s plenty within a short walk. The Entertainment Quarter right beside the venue has casual restaurants and bars, and it’s the obvious place to eat before the show. Crown Street in Surry Hills is a short walk west and has a much wider choice, including several Korean and Asian places.

Centennial Park borders Moore Park to the east. On a warm November evening in late spring, it’s a pleasant place to sit before doors. Fans following the tour to Melbourne have Saturday to travel. The Sydney–Melbourne route is one of the busiest domestic air corridors in the world.
