Kiwi fans of The Ten Tenors hoping to see their favourite group at Manukau’s Due Drop Events Centre have been misled by an overseas ticket resale platform, an industry body warns.

Co-promoters Showcase Entertainment and Pacific Entertainment were told last week that StubHub was selling tickets to a non-existent March 1 Ten Tenors concert at the South Auckland centre.

“The actual Auckland concert is at the Aotea Centre on February 28, 2027,” the New Zealand Promoters Association clarified in a statement.

While the false concert listing has since been taken down from the site, it remains active through Google search.

The Commerce Commission has also been notified, and people impacted were encouraged to get in touch with it.

“There are also tickets to several other Ten Tenors shows at other venues for sale through StubHub, but promoters warn against trusting any tickets for their tour being marketed through the site that are all at significantly inflated prices,” the Association said.

The popular Australian classical crossover group last played shows here in 2023. They are known for blending classical arias with contemporary rock, pop and musical theatre.

Their 2027 New Zealand tour consists of 11 dates in February and March next year, ticketed through official platforms Ticketmaster (Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Rotorua), Ticketek (Nelson, Invercargill, Palmerston North, Napier and Tauranga) and The Regent Theatre (via the Dunedin box office).

The Ten Tenors website also directs punters to the authorised outlet for purchase.
