Mariah Carey and Pitbull are coming to Sydney with a stacked Fridayz Live line-up
It's time to live out your musical fantasy, folks – because Fridayz Live has just announced its huge 2025 line-up and it's loaded with so many R'n'B legends and massive hip-hop stars that you may want to sit down and fire up the group chat immediately. Leading the charge is none other than the queen of the whistle note, five-time Grammy Award winner and certified diva, Mariah Carey. It's been 11 years since Mimi last performed in Australia, and you bet we've had 'We Belong Together' on repeat since this news dropped. Joining her is Mr Worldwide himself, Pitbull. Known for his d-floor smash-hits (including 'Hotel Room Service', 'On The Floor' and 'Give Me Everything') and epic collabs, we recommend sourcing your bald cap and suit sooner, rather than later (IYKYK). But wait, there's more! Also scheduled to appear is Pittsburgh rapper Wiz Khalifa (hands up if 'See You Again' still makes you shed a tear); crunk and club superstar Lil Jon; powerhouse rap icon Eve; UK pop and hip-hop artist Tinie Tempah; and former American Idol winner turned chart-topping vocalist Jordin Sparks. Phew, talk about stars in our eyes. If this news didn't blow ya mind or make you feel young, wild and free, we're not sure what will. Check out everything you need to know about the Fridayz Live announcement below. When is Fridayz Live happening in Sydney? Fridayz Live is heading to Sydney Showground's main stadium, ENGIE Stadium.

An ANZ Circle presale will run from Thursday, May 29 to Saturday, May 31; and the official Fridayz Live presale kicks off on Friday, May 30 – you'll need to register here to be part of that one.
