Whichever stage Nooriyah steps onto, you go there. Fresh from headlining festivals like Glastonbury and Coachella, she’s hitting Australian shores this January ’26 for one night only at The Prince Consort.



You’ve seen the viral Boiler Room clip where she opens with her father on the oud. That moment signalled everything this set—and this tour—is about: heritage, exhilaration and movement.


Born in Saudi Arabia, raised between Japan and the UK, Nooriyah brings her full world to the booth. She’s the founder of Middle of Nowhere, a SWANA‑focused platform amplifying artists and styles from the South‑West Asian & North African region. Her music fuses Arabic percussion, Afrobeats, amapiano and house into a set that’s pure celebration. As she told one interview:

“My whole ethos as a DJ is, I’m gonna make you move. No matter what I’m gonna play high‑energy, infectious music that’s gonna make you move.” DJ Mag

This night isn’t just another stop. It’s a landmark. The dancefloor becomes a site of connection where identity meets rhythm, where heritage meets the club. As she puts it:

“Music is such a universal language that people feel, no matter what.” Notion

Don’t sleep on this one. Tickets will sell fast. Register for pre‑sale now and secure your place in what will be a tour highlight.
