OneRepublic’s Sweet Escape Tour 2026 hits Australia & New Zealand.
OneRepublic have always occupied a sweet spot between pop maximalism and songwriter flex, and The Sweet Escape Tour feels like a victory lap for both.
Currently tearing through Australia and New Zealand, Ryan Tedder and co. are delivering a slick, crowd-pleasing show that leans hard into nostalgia while quietly reminding everyone just how many modern pop anthems Tedder’s fingerprints are on.
The band’s live reputation has long been built on polish rather than chaos, and 2026 is no exception: expect immaculate transitions, festival-ready pacing, and a setlist that’s engineered for mass sing-alongs.
Where the show really lifts, though, is the now-signature “Songwriter Segment”, where Tedder steps out from behind OneRepublic’s catalogue to revisit hits he penned for some of pop’s biggest names. It’s part humble brag, part masterclass — and a reminder that even if you didn’t come for OneRepublic, you probably came for his songs anyway.
Based on their most recent February 2026 shows, here’s the onerepublic setlist you can expect.
