General on sale tickets are available at 2pm (local time) on Friday July 18.

The announcement comes after eagle-eyed Melburnians spotted a giant digital billboard flashing images of the Kiwi singer above the iconic Young & Jackson pub at the corner of Flinders and Swanston Street, one of the city’s busiest intersections.

The cryptic visuals, which lit up the night sky, featured surreal, blue-tinted clips of Lorde accompanied by the word ‘Ultrasound’ – a direct nod to her upcoming world tour and her latest album Virgin.

The same promo was later spotted in Sydney, sparking a frenzy among fans.

Fan accounts were quick to react online, with @lordeontour dropping three emergency emoji sirens, and another follower begging, ‘PLEASE BRING LORDE TO ADELAIDE.’

It comes after Lorde hinted that an Aussie and Kiwi leg would be added to her Ultrasound tour, despite both countries being left off the original announcement.

‘Could you imagine if I didn’t? That would be bad, that would be bad,’ she teased in a recent interview.

‘Watch this space.’

Lorde’s new album Virgin, released on June 27, has already received critical acclaim and commercial success, debuting at No. 1 in Australia, New Zealand and the UK, and landing at No. 2 in the US.

The singer has also teased more music to come, revealing there are unreleased B-sides that didn’t make the final cut of Virgin.

She gave fans a taste of what to expect from the Ultrasound era with a surprise performance at Glastonbury last month – her first live appearance tied to the new record.

The tour kicks off in Texas on September 17 and will travel across the US, UK and Europe before wrapping up in Sweden on December 9.

Support acts joining Lorde on the road include Blood Orange, The Japanese House, Nilüfer Yanya, Empress Of, Chanel Beads, Jim-E Stack and Oklou.
