Melbourne’s own Dean Turnley is about to spend the rest of 2026 living out of a suitcase — and honestly, after the year he’s had, it’s hard to blame the promoters lining up around the block.

The Australian DJ/producer just announced a sprawling headline tour that will carry him across the U.K., Europe, and North America through November, riding the wave of his No. 1 smash “Actin’ Tough.” The run kicks off June 12 at The Light Bar in London before winding through Dublin, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Ibiza, and just about every other city that matters to house music heads this summer.

The North American leg lights up on September 5 at District in Atlanta, with headline stops at California Plaza in Los Angeles (Sept. 12), Spybar in Chicago (Sept. 18), and Refuge in New York (Oct. 10). Festival diehards will catch him at CRSSD in San Diego (Sept. 26), Portola in San Francisco (Sept. 27), III Points in Miami (Oct. 17), and Freaky Deaky in Austin (Oct. 31). Across the pond, he’s slotted into Parklife, Tomorrowland, and Pukkelpop — a festival trifecta that speaks for itself.

For those who somehow missed it, “Actin’ Tough” has racked up over 14 million Spotify streams since its March release via CHAOS/Astralwerks/Intercord Germany in collaboration with HOME//GRXWN, and hit No. 1 on the Spotify Viral Chart, SoundCloud, Shazam, and Beatport. MixMag called it “one of the year’s biggest and most popular earworms,” praising its “next-level catchy vocals and progressive bass line” that tap directly into the 90s nostalgia vein running through club culture right now. Turnley even got the Times Square SoundCloud billboard treatment during release week, and BBC Radio 1 has been in his corner from the jump.

The track’s rise is a proper word-of-mouth story. It circulated as a coveted ID in DJ sets long before its official release, championed early by Melbourne’s Not Without Friends crew — Jordan Brando, William Kiss, and Luke Alessi — before catching fire in sets from Chris Lake, Sammy Virji, Subtronics, Gorgon City, Cassian, Peggy Gou, and more. Bia even flipped her own version at Coachella. During Miami Music Week, it was inescapable — the most played-out record in the city, with Turnley popping up at Factory Town alongside Rossi., closing out the week with a surprise set at Club Space.

A co-founder of Thailand’s Sundancer festival and a decade-deep student of Detroit and Chicago house, Turnley has quietly been building this moment for years. Now it’s here, and he’s not slowing down.
