Globally renowned pop group Westlife announce the New Zealand leg of their monumental Westlife 25: The Anniversary World Tour, alongside today’s release of their highly anticipated forthcoming album 25 - The Ultimate Collection, a celebration of their record-breaking 25-year journey at the very top of global pop.
General on-sale tickets are available from Friday, 15 May 2pm.
About the band:
Released today, 25 - The Ultimate Collection combines 21 fan favourites including “You Raise Me Up,” “Uptown Girl,” and “Flying Without Wings” with brand-new material recorded by all four members of Westlife: Shane, Nicky, Kian and Mark.
The band says: “We can’t believe it’s been 20 years since we last toured in Australia and New Zealand, so it only felt right that we should come back and celebrate our 25th Anniversary together. We have always loved coming back to this part of the world as the fans have always made our trips so memorable and special - you have the loudest fans in the world! The 25th Anniversary show will be our most exciting and ambitious to date and of course, we will be performing all of the hits. Australia and New Zealand - we cannot wait to see you!”
Over the last 25 years, Westlife have become one of the most successful pop groups of all time. Their music has been streamed over 3 billion times globally; they’ve achieved 36 No.1 albums worldwide, 14 UK No.1 singles (ranking only behind Elvis Presley and The Beatles), sold over 55 million records, surpassed 1 billion YouTube views, and sold more than 6 million concert tickets around the world. The Wild Dreams Tour sold over 1.2 million tickets alone. The band have performed over 200 shows since their reunion in 2019 across 30 countries.
Westlife remain the UK & Ireland’s top-selling album group of the 21st century.
