KEY POINTS:
Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli will perform a concert at Auckland's Vector Arena in August.
The blind singer is regarded as one of the world's most gifted vocalists and has sold more than 60 million albums worldwide.
Bocelli is perhaps best known for his rendition of Time to Say Goodbye (Con te Partiro), an Italian popera duet which he recorded with British soprano Sarah Brightman.
His album Vivere: The Best of Bocelli, peaked at number four on the New Zealand album charts and sold platinum in New Zealand.
Bocelli will be accompanied at his Auckland concert by the Czech National Symphony Orchestra and will deliver a programme including both his pop hits and classical favourites.
Tickets for the August 20 concert go on sale on Monday May 26 and are available from Ticketmaster; (09) 970 9700.
