“Hi Aussie Livies,” she personally addressed fans in a video posted to a Universal Music Australia Instagram broadcast channel on Tuesday morning.

“Universal Music Australia has organised a scavenger hunt for you in Sydney on the ninth of October at 2pm,” she revealed.

“There will be three locations around Sydney CBD, and you’ll find a bunch of merch items that I’ve signed just for you.”

The Vampire singer said there will be a meet and greet after the scavenger hunt to give Aussie fans a chance to meet each other and write a joined letter to the singer.

There will be 15-20 merchandise items at each of the three locations “for the quickest fans to choose from”. Afterwards a picnic will be hosted at the Domain where fans can join in making friendship bracelets.
