Showcase Entertainment Group and Level 42 have taken the difficult decision to cancel their Auckland show on Wednesday 28 April rather than further postpone due to restrictions on international travel for the band and crew because of Covid-19.

Ticketmaster will be in touch directly with all ticket holders in the next few days and will fully refund all tickets purchased.

If customers have any queries regarding their booking, please contact Ticketmaster here.

 

Level 42 left their mark on the 1980s with a polished, upbeat, danceable pop/rock sound largely defined by lead singer / bassist Mark King’s thumb-slap bass technique. Catchy hits such as ‘Lessons in Love’, ‘Running in the Family’ and ‘Something About You’ crossed the band from their jazz-funk fusion roots firmly into the mainstream pop charts and gave them a fanbase worldwide.

As a live act, Level 42 have primarily toured the UK (they’ve sold out London’s Wembley Arena for a total of 21 nights over their career), Scandinavia and Europe, and have had a number of forays into the North American market on arena tours with the likes of Peter Gabriel and Steve Winwood. Why they never made it Down Under for concerts has Mark King scratching his head, but he is rapt the opportunity is finally here, 40 years into his career. “Touring with the band this year has been about as much fun as I can remember having had on the road, and If you had asked me back in 1980 if I thought we would be selling out theatres around the world when I was sixty years old, I probably would have laughed! Re-invention can be a wonderful thing,” he says.
