It had looked as though just less than half a million eager Australians would get to see Robbie perform live in Australia this year, but promoter Chugg Entertainment announced today that more seats to this sold out concerts would be released to the general public.

If you missed the chance to buy one of the 450,000 odd tickets that were released for Australian shows in June this year all is not lost!

New tickets for the Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide shows will go on sale on Wednesday 4th of October, followed by the Melbourne and Perth shows on sale on Thursday 5th October.

Michael Chugg and his production team recently flew to Cologne, Germany to watch Robbie's Close Encounters show live. When the Australian production experts met with Robbie's team and reviewed the layout and sight lines of the Australian Stadiums, they confirmed that they could offer more tickets to die hard Robbie Williams fans. These will be tickets available to either side of the stage and in other areas of the venue.

U2, Abba, Madonna, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones all come to mind when we think of huge names in music with massive sell out concerts but none have had a tour this successful.

In Europe schools closed and people waited in line for 48 hours to purchase tickets that sold out in less than 2 hours. A new Guinness World Record was set after Robbie Williams' tour sold more than 1.6 million concert tickets for his 2006 world tour, earning an estimated $144 million in one day.

The Robbie Williams Close Encounters Tour is a phenomenon taking the world by storm and in November, it will reach Australia's shores playing to 9 stadiums across every major city with between 50,000 and 60,000 people at every show.

Australians bought up every ticket within hours of them being offered and more than 6 months before the concert was scheduled to play. There is no doubt in the mind of promoter Michael Chugg that this is the biggest show Australia has ever seen.

Logistical statistics back up this claim again. 3 years of planning, 360 tonnes of equipment, more than 200 crew and a fleet of trucks and buses taking almost a week to construct the stage with 2 giant scorpion tails measuring 66 meters by 26 meters, 8 giant tusks made from 6,800 LED blocks and 125 meters of video wall.

The show, described as "an unearthly fusion of the supernatural with enough modern technology to power an early lunar landing" is guaranteed to leave you satisfied.

Once this final release of tickets has been sold out there will be no more tickets released and no new shows scheduled. Australia, this is your last chance to see Robbie Williams live in concert... don't miss out!
