KYLIE Minogue will bring the year's most ambitious tour to her home town in July.

Minogue has agreed on a string of US dates next February and has also signalled an intention to do Australian dates.

Sources close to Minogue said she has approved a preliminary list of dates for a world tour interspersed with long breaks to spend quality time with boyfriend, actor Olivier Martinez.

Tour dates presented to Minogue suggest a June and July run for her Australian shows, sources said.

Promoter Michael Gudinski will travel to London today to discuss Minogue's tour plans.

Minogue is said to be planning a hi-tech spectacle with "old skool" twists.

"It will be revolutionary," Gudinski said yesterday. "Kylie's shows have consistently got more intricate, more advanced and more hi-tech. She spares no expense and to her, the word impossible doesn't exist."

Her commitment to a US arena tour is significant, and marks a concerted push into that territory.

Minogue's latest album, Body Language, is cleverly trans-Atlantic, with hip hop-influenced tracks geared to the US market.

"It is exciting to see that, after all this time, she has committed to taking a sizeable tour to America," Gudinski said. "This is the first time ever for Kylie."

Minogue told the Herald Sun: "There is a whole lot of work ahead, but it's a pleasure to be able to create a show with material that is so different to anything I've done before."

Minogue's tour spearheads a list of strongly tipped 2004 tours by The Eagles, Cher and U2. Finalists from Australian Idol have also announced a February 6 show at Rod Laver Arena.
