Thirsty Merc at Mansfield Arena

Thirsty Merc are back with 2026 Encore Shows, hitting Mansfield Arena on Friday 1 May. After a massive run of tours and the hugely successful Summer Live 25 run, Thirsty Merc are bringing the songs that defined Aussie summers straight back to the stage. Expect a loud, feel-good set packed with classics like Someday, Someday, 20 Good Reasons, Mousetrap Heart, In The Summertime, The Good Life, Tommy and Krista and plenty more Merc favourites. Formed in 2002, Thirsty Merc have spent over two decades doing what they do best. Big hooks, huge choruses, and live shows that punch well above their weight. With over 250,000 albums sold, multiple ARIA nominations, and In The Summertime still a national anthem (and even re-signed for Series 19 of Bondi Rescue), this is a band with serious legacy and plenty left in the tank. Frontman Rai Thistlethwayte sums it up best: the crowds have been unreal, the tours have been all-time, and they’re only getting more inspired to keep it rolling. If you want a proper night of Australian hits, good vibes, and singalongs from the first song to the last, this is the one. Get in quick.
