About this event
The King Parrot concert takes place on Saturday, 12 December 2026 at Altar Bar, Hobart.
After another massive year on the road in support of their latest record "A Young Person's Guide to King Parrot", the KP crew have put together a run of 8 shows to close out 2026 in Australia. They'll be heading Off The Beaten Track to hit some of those less ventured locations including regional VIC, NSW and 3 shows in Tasmania!

After kicking off the year in the USA alongside metal veterans Gwar and Soulfly for 39 shows across the continent, the boys have shown no signs of slowing down with upcoming summer European festival appearances scheduled and select club dates through Europe, Scandinavia, the UK and Ireland throughout August and September.
In a change to the usual King Parrot touring lineup and while a few long standing members take some time off the road, the band have enlisted US bass playing veteran Derek Engemann to handle duties for upcoming touring commitments. Derek brings a wealth of experience including a 6 show stint filling in for Rex Brown from Pantera as well as more permanent duties in hugely successful metal acts like Cattle Decapitation, Scour and Philip H. Anselmo and The Illegals. Be sure to catch King Parrot... Off The Beaten Track in November and December through Australia. Tickets are on sale now!
