Steve Backshall, star of ABC TV’s Deadly 60 is returning to Australia following a sell-out UK tour with his brand-new show OCEAN touring 18 venues across Australia from December 2022.
OCEAN is a love letter to the most exciting environment on our planet—and a great way to learn more about what we need to do to save our seas. Using stunts, experiments, props, cutting edge science plus big screen footage from his two decades in TV, Steve will bring the icons of the Big Blue to life.
“Australia has been my second home over the last two decades! The wildlife on your sublime wild continent, is 2nd to none. And as a giant island surrounded by seas, it’s the perfect place for my Ocean tour. The tour will bring marine dreams to life, with life-size ocean Giants on stage, stance, tricks, and glorious visuals. If you’re into our seas and all the things that live there, then this is the show for you!” — Steve Backshall
From Great whites to Great whales; seals to sardine shoals; this is a fantastic opportunity for all the family to dive deep into the wonderful world beneath the waves.
Naturalist Steve Backshall is best known for BBC Earth children’s TV show Deadly 60, in which he tracks down the world’s most dangerous animals. He is an author, expedition leader, naturalist, wildlife expert and a fearless presenter. Having travelled the world to learn about the most inspiring predators, Steve has swum with sharks, been bitten by a caiman, squirted with ink by Humboldt squid, flirted with a tarantula, charged by elephants, and stared out by thresher and great hammerhead sharks, but still maintains that wild animals pose no threat to people—in fact quite the opposite.
- Pre-sale starts Tuesday 13 September
- General Public ticket sales start Thursday 15 September

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.
