WESTLIFE ANNOUNCE AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND LEG OF ‘WESTLIFE 25: THE ANNIVERSARY WORLD TOUR’ IN JULY 2027

Globally renowned pop group Westlife announced the Australia and New Zealand leg of their monumental Westlife 25: The Anniversary World Tour, alongside the 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.

Produced by Live Nation, the Australia and New Zealand tour in July 2027 will see Westlife deliver a euphoric, hit-filled set spanning their extraordinary career, including timeless ballads and global chart-toppers. Starting in Australia, Westlife will stop in Perth on 16 July at the RAC Arena before heading to Adelaide’s Entertainment Centre on 18 July, followed by the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on 21 July, Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on 23 July and finishing at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on 26 July. The band will then cross the ditch to Aotearoa, New Zealand to play at Tamaki Makaurau, Auckland’s Spark Arena on 28 July, and Otautahi, Christchurch’s Wolfbrook Arena on 30 July to round out this leg.

Also 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!

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.
