He’s not even finished with his 2008 tour just yet, but so popular has Andre Rieu’s visit to our shores been that he’s already announced dates for 2009. Next year’s dates, which kick off in Sydney on October 15, will be much more intimate affairs with Andre playing smaller venues (presumably the ticket prices for these concert might be a little steeper than his current stadium tour). His recent November 15 concert at Melbourne’s Telstra Dome broke a world attendance record for an Andre Rieu concert, with an astonishing 38,605 people in the audience. That concert was filmed and it’s this concert which will be released as Andre’s ‘Live In Australia’ DVD, in the stores on December 13. Tickets for the Melbourne shows are on sale now, tickets for Adelaide go on sale at 9am Monday November 24, Sydney and Newcastle’s concerts are on sale on Monday December 01, while Brisbane’s concerts are on sale on Monday December 08.
