The rumour that's been buzzing through Australia's Greek community can now be confirmed: Helena Paparizou will be touring Down Under this September. See her live on stage…

The Greek community in Australia is sizable: after Athens, Melbourne ostensibly has the largest Greek population in the world! In both Melbourne and Sydney (which also has a sizeable Greek community.) thousands were up at 06h local time to watch Helena Paparizou win Greece's first Eurovision Song Contest title in May. Shortly thereafter rumours began to circulate that Helena would be touring Australia. And it's true!

Helena (along with Nikos Kourkoulis) will perform at Sydney's SuperDome on Friday 16 September., followed by two shows in Melbourne at the QBH entertainment complex. on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 September.

Helena will also appear on Ten Network's popular Rove Live chat show a few days earlier on Tuesday 13 September.

Tickets for the Sydney show can be purchased through Ticketek Australia. More information on the Melbourne dates is available from Greeksingers.com.au.
