Way back when at the turn of the millennium, Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett smashed art, music and technology together to create the world’s greatest virtual band. Now – having turned this playful experiment into an enduring and innovative global phenomenon - 2D, Murdoc Niccals, Noodle and Russel Hobbs are set to storm Adelaide Entertainment Centre for a special extra show added just for Illuminate Adelaide.

Returning to the SA stage for the first time in over a decade, the BRIT and Grammy Award-winning supergroup will bring their genre-hopping blend of hip hop, rock and dance to life with a 20-piece ensemble led by Albarn and an all-star army of collaborators. Performing tracks across their seven album catalogue from Clint Eastwood and Demon Days to 2020’s Strange Timez, the band might be virtual – but the feeling is so good.

Moonchild Sanelly will join Gorillaz, opening the night armed with a list of empowering new tracks from her recently released album, Phases.

Whilst it is not mandatory to wear masks to enter Gorillaz we encourage patrons to protect themselves by wearing a mask.
