Legendary alternative rockers Pixies will feature at the Sydney Opera House as part of the 2014 Vivid LIVE program, playing four Concert Hall shows exclusive to our city.

It’ll be the first visit to our shores for Black Francis and co. (whoever ‘and co.’ might comprise by the time they get here) since 2010, when they toured the Doolittle record. They’ll play nightly from Friday May 23 – Monday May 26. Also announced on the Vivid LIVE schedule at the Opera House are the Australian Chamber Orchestra in collaboration with The Presets (Sunday May 25 and Thursday May 29); EDM pioneer Giorgio Moroder, who’ll make his Australian debut on Sunday June 1; and Pet Shop Boys, playing Friday June 6 – Sunday June 8.

The rest of the program will be announced on Monday March 24. Tickets for the first announce shows are on sale 9am Monday March 17.
