Roxette to play Hong Kong in March!
As the Hong Kong Tourism Board informs, Roxette’s world tour will reach the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, Hall 5BC on March 8, 2012.
Tickets will be available through Hong Kong Ticketing (Tel: +852 31 288 288) and Tom Lee on 23 November 2011 at 10am
The concert isn’t listed by Live Nation yet. Look out for more Asia dates in that time frame!
10th show in Australia added!
Live Nation Australia & New Zealand has finally revealed this news earlier today – it seems like Roxette’s successes with the current tour down-under never end. Though it was said that 9 scheduled concerts in Australia are the final list – now it turned out that the demand is so overwhelming that there will be the third (and final, haha) show in Sydney!
OK you deserve to hear it first – there will now be a TENTH show – a THIRD & FINAL for Sydney – on Saturday February 25. If you’re in Sydney and want to go there will be a LN pre-sale but you won’t need to log in to My Live Nation, instructions to come. It’s Mardi Gras night so will be a huge party
We just love such promoters who do their work well!
Thanks to Celestte Thistlethwayte for letting us know.
