Niall Horan Announces ‘The Show’ Live On Tour

Niall Horan has announced that he will be bringing ‘The Show’ Live On Tour to New Zealand in April 2024 to celebrate the release of his upcoming third studio album, The Show. Presented by TEG Live and The Edge, the New Zealand show will take place on 26 April 2024 at Spark Arena, Auckland. This will be Niall’s first time back in New Zealand after bringing his sold-out Flicker world tour to Aotearoa in 2018.

Tickets to ‘‘The Show’ Live On Tour will go on sale to the general public at 10.00am (local time) on Friday 2 June from Ticketmaster.

New Zealand fans who pre-order The Show album on any format from JB Hi-Fi by 5:00pm on Monday 29 May will receive an exclusive ticket presale code for his Auckland show. The JB Hi-Fi Tour presale will commence at 10:00am on Wednesday 31 May. This offer is exclusive to JB Hi-Fi New Zealand and can be accessed HERE.

Thrilled to be including New Zealand on his worldwide tour, Niall says, “I have said it many times, but I do mean it when I say that the times I have spent down under are some of the best periods of my life… I have had amazing shows in Australia and New Zealand, and I cannot wait to be back in 2024. My favourite thing in the world is being on tour. Performing my songs for my fans and sharing those incredible moments together are the reason why I write music in the first place. This is going to be my best tour yet and I cannot wait to see all you “lovers” in 2024.”

A deeply felt meditation on everything from mental health to the infinite complexity and uncertainty of love, The Show is an endlessly spellbinding statement on following your heart to its absolute truth. As he gears up to share his most personal material yet in a truly extraordinary career, Niall is particularly eager to return to the stage.

“There’s nothing better than watching the crowd sing back to you with all that emotion on their faces and knowing that they’re attaching the song to something meaningful in their own lives,” says Niall Horan. “To me, that’s always the greatest thing that can ever come from songwriting.”

Originally from Mullingar, Ireland, Horan has sold over 80 million records and toured the globe multiple times as part of the iconic One Direction. His full-length solo debut Flicker entered the Billboard 200 at No. 1 in October 2017 and contained the 8 x ARIA Platinum single Slow Hands and 4 x ARIA Platinum This Town.

The album hit the top 10 in 20 countries total and charted #2 on the Australian ARIA charts. With combined global streams surpassing eight billion, Flicker has gone Platinum in five countries (including the U.S.) and Gold in additional seven countries. Heartbreak Weather followed in 2020 and topped the UK’s Official Albums chart and Billboard’s Top Album Sales tally and came in at #2 on the ARIA charts.
