Air Supply Announce Auckland Show For December

Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock met on May 12, 1975, during rehearsals for Jesus Christ Superstar. They return in December 2026 to celebrate 50 Years of wonderful hits including all-time classics such as Love and Other Bruises, All Out Of Love, The One That You Love and of course Lost In Love.

Air Supply perform at The Civic in Auckland on Tuesday December 15. Tickets on sale from 12pm, Thursday June 11 HERE

If it’s true that practice makes perfect, then Graham and Russell – beloved by their millions of fans across the planet as Air Supply – have had nearly half a century to hone their skills, harness their passion and unleash the beautifully intimate yet rockin’ romantic energy of those instantly identifiable 80s hits that made them global superstars.

Over their amazing 50-year career Air Supply have achieved success after success, with so much amazing music still to come for their staunch legion of fans. Making Love Out Of Nothing At All, Now And Forever, Sweet Dreams… these are songs that mean so much to so many, and Russell and Graham will be joined by their stellar band to present the songs the fans love, in an amazing show that will be one to remember forever.

When Lost In Love was released in Australia in October 1976, it quickly soared to the top of the charts and went on to be named Song of the Year in 1980. Seven consecutive Top 5 singles at that time equalled The Beatles’ run. Air Supply’s albums Lost In Love, The One That You Love, Now & Forever, and The Greatest Hits have since sold in excess of 40 million copies. In 2010 Graham was honoured with a BMI Million-Air Certificate recognizing three million performances of All Out Of Love.

The duo is ever-present on the road to the tune of 130 dates a year and hit a milestone 5500th live show in late 2024. Air Supply were the first Western group to tour China, who prior to the band’s breakthrough would not allow pop music across their borders. In 2005, Air Supply performed for a record 175,000 people in Cuba.

“We’re so looking forward to coming back to New Zealand in December”, said Russell Hitchcock about the upcoming show. Added Graham Russell, “We’re very, very excited to be back in New Zealand – one of the most beautiful countries in the world and we will be spending a bit more time there. We hope to see you all so you can join us on our 50th year together!”

Make sure you get your tickets early to witness this spellbinding performance of Air Supply’s catalogue of wonderful songs – these will be very special nights with some of the most beautiful love songs ever written.

The absolute best of Air Supply
