Björk will perform the only Australian shows of her Cornucopia tour exclusively in Western Australia next March, a coup for Perth festival that will mark the Icelandic artist’s first full Australian concert since 2008’s Big Day Out.

Her environmentally themed Cornucopia concerts will be performed inside a purpose-built 5,000 capacity tent in Perth, where she has been invited to meet Indigenous Noongar community members.
