Robbie Williams confirms New Zealand tour rumours

Robbie Williams will be here in February.

Robbie Williams is bringing his new world tour to New Zealand - and this one has a bit of a difference.

The UK pop star will perform two shows here in February as part of his Heavy Entertainment Show World Tour, on the back of last year's album of the same name.

Robbie Williams will perform here in February at shows in Auckland and Dunedin.

He's set to perform at Auckland's Spark Arena on February 14 and Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium on February 17.

The show will include hits from Williams' entire career, along with "a couple of surprising covers thrown in for good measure".

Williams explained his tour in a statement that said: "The heavy entertainment show is every single moment on earth - we're all part of the heavy entertainment show."

The Angels and Let Me Entertain You hitmaker was last here in 2015.

Tickets for both shows go on sale on September 7.
