'Bieber fever' will return to Australia when the 18-year-old pop singer arrives in Melbourne today.

Justin Bieber will be in Australia for three days to promote his new album Believe.

Security is on lockdown with Bieber's record label Universal offering few details about the trip, which will include appearances on Australia's Got Talent, Sunrise and Channel [V].

Teenagers across the country have taken to Twitter to express their excitement, while the paparazzi is poised to pounce on Bieber as soon as he touches down in Australia.

"Guys it's really happening, after over a year Justin is coming back! Omg!" one fan Tweeted.

"10 hours and Justin is in the same country as me! Cannot contain my excitement ATM!!!!!" another fan wrote on the social networking site.

Last time the Canadian star visited in April 2010 it was pandemonium. A planned free concert, put on by the Seven Network's Sunrise program at Sydney's Circular Quay, was cancelled due to overcrowding.

As hordes of teens surged forward, things got so dangerous that Bieber pleaded with them to go home.

The television network is taking no chances this time, promising beefed up security to safeguard Bieber's Sunrise performance on Wednesday morning.
