Stan Walker has announced his first New Zealand shows since he battled cancer last year.
Walker is heading on the 12-date New Takeover tour, which will see him perform across New Zealand's main centres over October and November.
The New Takeover tour will be Walker's first in five years. A 2016 tour was cancelled after his mother was diagnosed with cancer, and in 2017, Walker received his own diagnosis.
Walker had to have his stomach removed, a procedure that was documented in Three's acclaimed documentary Stan, which aired in March.
