The shows will take place on Saturday June 10, followed by Sunday June 11.

“It’s really sharing how lucky we are to have this place,” Williamson speaking to 9 Honey Celebrity on Saturday.

“We bypass the entire desert and bypass the rainforest, and people have a lot of fun just being there, let alone the spectacle.”

Elsewhere in the chat, Williamson revealed that during the past few years of COVID restrictions and lockdowns, the 24-time Guitarra d’Or winner has had a chance to think about retirement.

He told the outlet that he stuck to his 100 acres during the pandemic and spent time building a green house and chook pen.

“I came from the dirt and now I’m back on it,” the Drover’s Boy hitmaker said of his country lifestyle.

The land, he says, ‘keeps me alive and creating. Once I walk away and go onstage, I’m like, ‘Oh, this is what I do. But it’s getting harder and harder for me to leave the house.

The 77-year-old music legend has been talking about retiring for the past two years.

Williamson, who has reportedly sold 4 million albums in Australia alone, has repeatedly spoken of hanging up his guitar for good since 2021.

The three-time ARIA winner for Best Country Album said he is preparing for retirement and is now prepared to do less.

In 2010, the Order of Australia recipient was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame.
