Six60 announce return to Auckland's Western Springs Stadium next year

August 1, 2019

The band will become the first local act to sell out the venue that has hosted so many of music’s biggest names.

Award-winning Kiwi band Six60 is set to return to Auckland's Western Springs Stadium for a new live show next February.

It comes after the Dunedin natives made history earlier this year with their previous concert at the Auckland venue - selling out the 50,000 tickets in 20 minutes.

"The last show at Western Springs was such a big moment for us," the band members said in a joint statement. "The love we felt at Western Springs Stadium was truly special, so there was no hesitation when the idea came up of doing it all over again.

"And this time, we want to go even bigger! We can't wait."

As Mike Thorpe discovered the band nearly didn’t happen at all.

The five-piece band holds records for combined album sales of 15x platinum and selling over 1 million singles in New Zealand alone.

Six60's sophomore album Six60 (2), spent 230 weeks in the New Zealand Top 40 charts.

The band will return to the venue with Ocean Alley, Mitch Hames and Church +AP on February 22.

Tickets go on sale to the general public on Thursday, August 8 at 12pm.
