Canadian crooner Michael Buble will return to Australia next year for a nationwide tour.

The Crazy Love Tour in February and March will take in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

Buble's fourth album Crazy Love, which includes original songs Haven't Met You Yet and Hold On, debuted at number one on the ARIA charts.

It's sold more than 350,000 copies in Australia and about five million worldwide.

This will be Buble's eighth visit to the country and fourth national tour - the last being in May and June 2008 when he performed 18 sold-out shows.

The 34-year-old says he never gets tired of being on the road.

"I just love getting in front of people," he says.

"It's so important to be in touch with your audience. They've paid their money, I want them to be entertained. My responsibility is just to take them away."

Buble has become a regular fixture in Australia over the years, having performed at the Logie Awards, the AFL grand final, and with the finalists of the 2009 Australian Idol on Network Ten.

He's also made a guest appearance on ABC TV comedy Kath & Kim and this year was the face of Foxtel's coverage of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.

Hugely popular in Australia, Buble's fans here gave him his first ever number one album with his self-titled release hitting the top spot in May 2004.

He's sold almost two million albums in Australia alone, with an estimated 25 million worldwide.

Advance tickets for the Crazy Love tour go on sale on Monday, May 24 with general tickets on sale from Friday, May 28.

Crazy Love Tour dates:

* Brisbane Entertainment Centre - February 11 and 12

* Acer Arena, Sydney - February 14 and 15

* Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne - February 22 and 23

* Adelaide Entertainment Centre - February 28

* Sandalford Estate, Swan Valley, WA - March 4
