Global superstar Harry Styles will head down under after officially rescheduling his Australian tour.

The recent Coachella headliner will bring his Love on Tour shows to Australian and New Zealand stadiums in February and March 2023.

The Australian leg will kick off in Perth on February 20, followed by Melbourne on February 24.

Styles will then play at the Gold Coast on February 28 and Sydney on March 3, followed by Auckland on March 7.  

His musical career started in 2010 when he auditioned as a solo singer for the British version of The X Factor, and went on to become a member of boy band One Direction.

As a solo artist, Styles won a Grammy Award in 2021 for best pop solo performance with his song Watermelon Sugar.

He originally planned a 2020 tour of New Zealand and Australia but cancelled as the coronavirus began to spread, citing "continuing challenges for international touring".

His Australia and New Zealand announcement comes fresh after a performance at the Coachella festival in California last weekend, which featured a duet with surprise guest Shania Twain.

Tickets for the Australian tour go on sale on April 27.
