Robbie Williams touches down in Melbourne ahead of his only Australian performance

Robbie Williams has arrived in Australia ahead of his highly anticipated one-off concert in Melbourne on Saturday.

The 46-year-old British pop star was spotted making his way through Melbourne Airport on Wednesday with his entourage.

Looking every inch the rock star, Robbie kept his dark sunglasses on as he strolled past the excitable crowd.

Dressed for comfort after a long-haul flight, the Let Me Entertain You singer wore black tracksuit pants and a black T-shirt.

He also wore a matching blazer, and capped off his ensemble with a pair of Gucci slip-on sneakers.

Robbie held his phone in one hand and pulled a small black suitcase behind him, chatting away as he walked out of the airport.

Police and airport staff were on hand to assist with the high-profile arrival.

The talented performer appeared to be in a great mood, smiling and speaking with onlookers as he made a hurried exit.

Although he didn’t stop, Robbie noticed one fan attempting to take a selfie, and smiled as he found himself in the shot.

Robbie will play the inaugural World Tour Melbourne, his only concert while in the country.

The performance will take place at Albert Park’s Lakeside Stadium on Saturday, and coincides with the Australian Grand Prix.

‘I am looking forward to getting down to Australia, it’s a place that is in my heart, I feel like an Aussie when I am there and if there’s an opportunity to get down there, I grab it with both hands,’ he previously said in a statement.

In an interview with The Project in January, Robbie said he feels relaxed whenever he’s in Australia.

‘I say this all the time about Australia, but in the UK where I’ve had tremendous success and great fans, there’s also a sort of tall poppy syndrome that comes with being from your own country, where there’s a lot of negativity that comes your way,’ he said.

‘In Australia, it just seems that I’m allowed to be me.’
