"These three legendary artists together bring a huge song list and will have everyone rocking throughout the day. Taupo is always the first show of the tour and next year is on Auckland Anniversary weekend. The setting is beautiful and Taupo leaves a lasting impression with the artists."
The 2013 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, Ann and Nancy Wilson, first showed the world women can rock when their band, Heart, stormed the charts in the 1970s.
Heart continued topping the charts through the 1980s and 1990s with huge hits These Dreams, Alone and What About Love.
Foreigner is responsible for some of rock's most enduring anthems including Feels Like The First Time, Urgent, Waiting For A Girl Like You, Double Vision, Hot Blooded, Cold As Ice, and the worldwide No1 hit, I Want To Know What Love Is.
Grammy-nominated Three Dog Night has a legacy that boasts over 50 million units sold and 21 straight top-40 hits, including the three No1 Billboard singles Mama Told Me (Not To Come), Black and White and Joy To The World, plus chart-toppers Shambala, Liar and One. Calvert hopes the concert will prove a hit with classic rock fans.
"It would be the biggest three that we've brought here yet and they're all looking forward to coming down and having a great time," she said.
Tickets for the Taupo Summer Concert go on sale on Monday, July 7.
Tickets are $99 (plus booking fee) through Ticketek.
