11 December, 2018- After a huge viral campaign from their South Island fans, SIX60announce that they’ll be bringing their stadium show to Forsyth Barr Stadium on Saturday 9 March.

The campaign for a Dunedin concert started seriously in November after front man Matiu Walters told The Hits hosts, Callum & P in an interview that band would love to come back for a show in Dunedin.

Callum and P took the comment as a challenge, rallying SIX60 fans on air and via Facebook.

The sheer reach of the viral campaign meant SIX60 couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

Lead Singer Matiu Walters said “Let’s do it, the people have spoken!”

“It’s not that long since we were in Dunedin to open for Ed Sheeran, but the fans have made it very clear that they want us to come back, we have left our team to pull it together and it seems they have,” Walters said.

“We’ve been working really hard on plans for the Western Springs concert, it’s a big celebration of everything that’s happened so far, so it’s amazing that we can bring this special show home to where SIX60 began and where people first supported our music.”
