Sade are preparing for their first Australian shows in more than 25 years this December, as they commence sold out tours of South America and Europe prior to arriving here.
The concerts continue to draw rave reviews internationally, confirming that Australian fans are in for the show of the year.
However it has become necessary to make several alterations to the Australian tour itinerary. The scale of the touring production and staging requirements has now increased to the extent that it will not be possible to present the show in the winery venues originally announced.
Therefore the Leconfield Wines, McLaren Vale performance will move indoors to the Adelaide Entertainment Centre.
There is no change to the show date, which remains Saturday, December 3.
Venue: Adelaide Entertainment Centre – relocated from Leconfield Wines, McLaren Vale

The band bears the name of its stylish and enigmatic lead singer, Nigerian-born and UK-raised, Sade Adu.
More than 20 years has passed since Adu, Stuart Matthewman (guitar/saxophone), Andrew Hale (keyboards) and Paul Denman (bass) -- collectively known as Sade -- last gave Australian fans a live taste of their flawless blend of R&B, soul, jazz and soft rock.
After a wait of ten years Sade are currently performing sell-out arena shows across the US, having performed to more than 600,000 people in 75 cities and 13 countries this year.
Boasting visually stunning production elements the critically acclaimed 2011 world tour follows the 2010 release of Sade's sixth studio album, "Soldier of Love" (Epic Records), and has become one of the biggest success stories of the US concert business this summer, boasting unanimous critical raves and multiple sell-out shows in the major US cities, having already played to more than 400,000 US fans.

The more than two-hour long, spell-binding set list takes fans on a journey through a collection of timeless hits; from the iconic 'Smooth Operator', 'The Sweetest Taboo', 'Your Love is King' and 'Is it a Crime?' through to 'Soldier of Love'.

"Immaculate... A tour de force" New York Times
"For two hours, Sade led the near-capacity crowd through a show that was life-affirming" Washington Post
"Few can claim a voice equal to Sade's. And arguably no other artist comes close in terms of so quickly creating - then sustaining - such a gloriously mellow and warm vibe onstage." San Jose Mercury News
"Silken and velvet curtains rose as if out of nowhere and then cascaded down onto the floor with each passing song... making her look like a Vogue spread come to life" Los Angeles Times
"That luxurious, smoky voice... is as glorious as ever" Rolling Stone, USA
Sade's spectacular shows have not been lost on fellow performers.
Snoop Dogg posted gushing tweets including: "Soldier of love concert was 1 of the greatest shows I ever seen." "Sade concert!!! Words can't explain! Pow!" tweeted P. Diddy.
Sade has enjoyed phenomenal international success throughout their 27-year career. Since releasing debut album 'Diamond Life' in 1984, each of the band's six classic studio albums have reached the Top 10 of Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart, selling more than 57 million albums worldwide to date, earning Sade Adu the title of highest selling British female artist of all time.
Sade's latest studio album, the Grammy Award winning album 'Soldier of Love' (Sony Music), debuted at #1 and reigned at the top of the Billboard album chart for three weeks. Rolling Stone calling the album "unimpeachably excellent" whilst Billboard proclaimed "it's been 10 years since Sade released an album... the giant has awoken".
