Westlife’s Brian McFadden and Boyzone’s Keith Duffy are bringing their supergroup Boyzlife to Australia and New Zealand in 2025.
The two British singers, who joined forces six years ago to form Boyzlife, will perform all the huge hits they recorded with their former boy bands, Westlife and Boyzone respectively. Expect to hear all the classics such as ‘My Love’, ‘World of Our Own’, ‘Swear It Again’, ‘Uptown Girl’, ‘If I Let You Go’, ‘Picture of You’, ‘No Matter What’, ‘Words’, ‘Baby Can I Hold You’ and more.
“The whole concept of the band at the start was that we wanted to do an autobiographical show,” says Duffy. “We wanted to tell our life experiences through the music rather than write it in a book. So we created Boyzlife! Now our collaboration brings together the nostalgic appeal of Boyzone and Westlife, together with an amazing live show.”
The extensive 15-date tour begins in New Zealand with a gig at the Regent Theatre in Dunedin on Tuesday, March 25. This is followed by shows at Isaac Royal Theatre in Christchurch on Wednesday, March 26, Regent on Broadway in Palmerston North on Thursday, March 27, the Opera House in Wellington on Friday, March 28, Baycourt in Tauranga on Saturday, March 29 and the Powerstation in Auckland on Sunday, March 30.
