A celebration of the 50th anniversary of Zeppelin’s classic sixth studio album, Physical Graffiti, the tour gives fans the chance to experience Zeppelin favourites in the flesh, like ‘The Wanton Song’ and ‘Kashmir’, alongside deeper cuts such as ‘In The Light’ and ‘Boogie With Stu.’ Not only is Bonham and his band performing the iconic album in full, but all the iconic Zeppelin tracks fans love will be incorporated into the set, including ‘Good Times Bad Times,’ ‘Whole Lotta Love’ and of course ‘Stairway To Heaven’.
Jon Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening commences with two concerts in New Zealand at Wellington’s The Opera House on Tuesday 14 April, followed by Auckland’s Kiri Te Kanawa on Wednesday 15 April.
The tour then heads to Australia for the remaining five shows at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on Friday 17 April, Newcastle’s Civic Theatre on Sunday 19 April, Sydney’s Opera House on Tuesday 21 April, Adelaide’s Thebarton Theatre on Thursday 23 April and Melbourne’s Palais Theatre on Saturday 25 April.

Following in his late father’s footsteps, Jason Bonham has established himself as one of the world’s greatest drummers.
Having played with the surviving Led Zeppelin members, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant, for the Zeppelin 40th anniversary concerts and helmed solo projects Bonham and The Jason Bonham Band, Bonham has years of experience behind the kit.
Bonham is also a massive fan of Physical Graffiti, declaring, “For me, this isn’t just an album—it’s the album.” He continues, “Physical Graffiti has always been my ultimate Led Zeppelin record, and I set out to honour its 50th Anniversary with 50 unforgettable shows. That vision now looks more like 80 shows! My last tour of Australia and New Zealand was nothing short of electrifying, and I know the April tour will raise the bar even higher. I’m counting down the days until JBLZE share our final powerful celebration of Physical Graffiti together.”
