Rapper, actor, comedian, writer, and man of your dreams Childish Gambino (aka Donald Glover) is coming to Australia this November.
The Atlanta star – who plans to retire his Childish Gambino persona at the end of the year – will headline this year’s Spilt Milk festival in Canberra on the 17th of November. They’ll be performing alongside a bevy of other acts including RL Grime, Peking Duk, and The Wombats, who I assume live as nomads travelling between every Australian music festival in the land.
There are no reports yet of any other shows, but it’d admittedly be pretty weird to come to Australia and just play Canberra. And by that, I mean “Please come to Sydney, Donald, and take me out to a candlelit dinner while dressed in full Lando Calrissian garb”.
Oh yeah, baby.
Tickets to this year’s fest go on sale on Thursday July 5th. Check out the full lineup and all the deets at the Spilt Milk festival website here.

8th November – HBF Stadium, Perth
10th November – Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Melbourne
