Announcing the news on social media the pop icon excitedly told fans they had "no idea" how hard it had been to keep the news from them.
"But it's time and I CAN'T WAIT," the singer wrote on X.
"See you sooonn."
The Tension tour will kick off in Perth on February 16.
Aside from Australian venues Minogue will perform in Bangkok, Tokyo, Kaohsiung, Manila, and a raft of United Kingdom arenas.
"I can't wait to share beautiful and wild moments with fans all over the world, celebrating the Tension era and more," Minogue said.
A new album Tension II is scheduled for October this year.
The first single from the album will be Lights, Camera, Action to be released on September 27.
The tour and album are off the back of the global success of her recent song Padam Padam which won best pop dance recording at the 2024 Grammy Awards.
In July she teased fans about an impending tour.
Speaking on BBC Radio 2, she told host Zoe Ball: "You know I like to stay busy, and you know I like to always have something up my sleeve.
"So you could hazard a guess that this is the start of more to come. You won't have to wait too long. There's plenty, shall we say, and I'm full of excitement."
Minogue has sold more than 80 million records worldwide.
Her song Can't Get You Out of My Head was the most-played track of 2000s.
