World Tour 2012

Brisbane and Melbourne close to sold-out

by

Live Nation Australia & New Zealand has opened a new waitlist on Ticketek.co.au for those who are interested in additional concerts in Brisbane and Melbourne. According to our information, these two gigs are really close to be announced as sold-outs. The similar waitlist was started back in August when tickets for the very first Sydney show were snapped up in record time. So it seems that six concerts in Australia is not the end of Roxette’s charm tour down there.

Missed out on tickets to Summer’s hottest concert?

If you are a Roxette fan and want to see another Brisbane or Melbourne concert added to the tour, show your interest and waitlist now!

Roxette coming to Auckland

by

Roxette came to New Zealand once, back in the late 80s, for a promotional visit at the height of their success following songs like The Look, Dressed for Success and ballad Listen to Your Heart from 1988 album Look Sharp!.

“We landed in a helicopter in a school somewhere – and there were lots of kids in school uniforms,” remembers Gessle during a recent interview with TimeOut. “Everyone was, like, crazy, like something from a Beatles movie or something,” he laughs.

Because that visit was only for promotional purposes they never got to play, and he says they are looking forward to coming back and doing a proper show as part of the world tour for latest album, Charm School.

Roxette will play their very first concert in New Zealand’s Vector Arena on February 11.
Tickets to the show go on sale on September 5 at Ticketmaster.co.nz
