The first riff does the talking.
Queens of the Stone Age return to Sydney this December, bringing their unmistakable mix of heavy grooves, sharp edges and dark rock swagger to Afterpay Arena, formerly Qudos Bank Arena.
It will be the band’s first run of Australian and New Zealand shows since 2024, with Primus and Tropical Fuck Storm joining the Sydney line-up. Across one loaded night, fans can expect songs spanning eight albums, from No One Knows and Little Sister to My God Is the Sun, Emotion Sickness and Paper Machete.
Three bands. No filler. Tuesday night is going to get loud.
Pullman Sydney Airport gives fans flying or driving into Sydney one place to drop the bags, eat well and get to the show.
Start with dinner and a drink at Mobius Bar & Grill, then head to Sydney Olympic Park for the full line-up. After the final song, return to a soundproofed room and 24/7 in-room dining, with Sydney Domestic and International Airport only minutes away for the trip home. Secure on-site parking is also available for guests driving to Sydney.
Late check-out may be available, subject to availability, for anyone who would rather not set an early alarm after a three-band night.
By train, it takes approximately 35-40 minutes to travel from Mascot Station to Olympic Park Station, usually with transfers at Central and Lidcombe.
By car, taxi or rideshare, the journey takes about 20 minutes and provides direct access to the Afterpay Arena precinct.
Book your stay at Pullman Sydney Airport and take the night from dinner at Mobius to the final Queens of the Stone Age encore..
