“Whilst being mindful of what many people have been through over the last month and after consultation with the venue, local media and authorities we are pleased to be able to bring Lorde back to the Hawkes Bay to complete her Solar Power Tour of Aotearoa.

Situations like this are never easy and we have tried to bring the tour back to Te Matau-a-Māui as soon as is practical for everyone.

Following the devastation of Cyclone Gabrielle, Lorde, alongside some New Zealand’s biggest acts came together to raise funds for the Red Cross with concert ‘Ōtautahi 4 Aotearoa.’ Lorde was a major part of this concert and she has always been determined to return to the Hawkes Bay to play these shows, we are thrilled that this has become reality this season.” — Brent Eccles Eccles Entertainment.

Limited tickets are still available for both shows and are on sale now from Ticketmaster. 

Lorde recently performed in Aotearoa and Australia on the Solar Power World Tour to mesmerised audiences and glowing reviews:

“Her stage presence was so unique, dancing in her classic irreverent style, in tune with every melody, captivating the audience and tugging at heartstrings”. – NZ Herald 

“Aesthetically and musically, Lorde is one of the most exciting artists not only amongst New Zealand’s crop of talent, or of her generation, but in music history…” – Stuff 

“It’s a wonderful way to send off the summer with a musician who’s a born performer, and a beautifully joyous and communal experience. As she sings in the last song of the night: we’re on each other’s team”. – The Age 

These are the final shows of Lorde’s Solar Power World Tour.
