Lorde Surprises Fans at Sydney Club Night Before New Album
Lorde Surprises Fans with Unexpected Visit to Sydney Club Night
In an unforgettable moment on May 25, 2025, Lorde surprised her fans by crashing a Lorde-themed club night at Mary’s Underground in Sydney. The event was a fan celebration dedicated to her music, with DJs spinning her biggest hits and plenty of themed fun. Fans were thrilled when the pop icon herself appeared unexpectedly, turning the night into a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Dancing, Singing, and Connecting with Fans
Lorde didn't just show up — she jumped right into the crowd, dancing and singing along to her own songs. She even took over the DJ booth for a short while, adding her own energy to the party. Fans recalled how she mingled warmly, shaking hands, hugging, and chatting about what her music means to them. Her genuine connection left everyone amazed.

A Reluctant Goodbye
Though her management eventually tried to gently encourage her to leave, Lorde reportedly “almost refused to go,” staying for about 30 minutes as she continued enjoying the celebration. Her reluctance showed just how much she was soaking in the special night with her fans.
A Surprise Planned Only by Lorde
Interestingly, this surprise was a personal decision by Lorde herself. EMI, her record label, had no involvement in the pop-up visit, though her security team had quietly scouted Mary’s Underground earlier that day to prepare. This impromptu visit came just ahead of two big moments for Lorde — the release of her highly anticipated album Virgin on June 27, 2025, and the start of her Ultrasound world tour in September.
