Joost Klein's 2026 World Tour stops at Auckland's NZICC

MICE editorial — 22 October 2026 Auckland Tier A

Joost Klein brings his 2026 World Tour to the NZICC's Te Paepae Theatre in Auckland on Sunday 29 November 2026, an 8pm live show promoted by Live Nation.

Joost Klein, the Dutch multi-disciplinary artist who represented the Netherlands at Eurovision 2024 with "Europapa", brings his 2026 World Tour to Auckland's New Zealand International Convention Centre on Sunday 29 November 2026, with the show set to begin at 8pm in the venue's Te Paepae Theatre.

The act

Joost Klein is a musician, visual artist and performer whose high-energy live shows fold music, visuals and emotion into a single production. His sound blends Dutch hardcore and punk influences with new-age and party music, and the Auckland date is the New Zealand stop on a World Tour 2026 announced by Live Nation.

The venue

The New Zealand International Convention Centre (NZICC) sits at 101 Hobson Street in central Auckland, within the SkyCity precinct at the heart of the CBD. The Joost Klein show is staged in the centre's Te Paepae Theatre. The surrounding CBD location puts the venue within walking distance of a dense cluster of city-centre hotels and the Aotea and waterfront areas, and it is served by Auckland's central bus network and the City Rail Link. These are factual access and accommodation notes only.

Why it's on the NZICC calendar

Although the NZICC is Auckland's purpose-built convention and exhibition centre, its theatre spaces also host live entertainment, and the Joost Klein World Tour date appears on the venue's own events programme as a ticketed concert promoted by Live Nation, with tickets sold through Live Nation NZ and Ticketmaster NZ.
