Miley Cyrus has been revealed as the headliner for the inaugural Australia iHeartRadio Festival this October, Billboard reports.
The single-day show debuts October 18 at Sydney's 20,000-plus capacity Allphones Arena. Other artists confirmed to perform are X Factor Australia judge Redfoo, Australian rock group At Sunset, Sydney-based rapper Miracle, and DJ duo The Faders. Organizers will announce more artists soon.
Cyrus, who performed at the Las Vegas edition of the festival last year, will already be in Australia for her Bangerz tour, which is hitting the big-five cities. The company promoting her October 10-23 jaunt, Dainty Group, will also be staging iHeartRadio's Australian festival leg with Sydney radio station KIIS 1065.
"This has been many months in the planning and we are incredibly grateful for the support of Miley Cyrus and the Australian Radio Network (ARN) to bring this to life in such a massive way," comments Dainty Group chairman Paul Dainty in a statement.
KIIS FM's Kylie and Jackie O spoke to Cyrus live on-air about her upcoming Down Under performance and a possible Harbor boat party, MTV points out.
"The harbor sounds nice," Cyrus said. "Look if there's a party I'm there."
Tickets for the festival go on sale Sept. 4 at Ticketek.
According to Billboard, iHeartRadio launched Down Under in late 2014 in what was the Internet Radio service's first expansion outside of the United States.
