First Concert Confirmed For Western Springs BowlOlivia Dean (Photo/Supplied)Western Springs Bowl has confirmed the first concert of its new era, with UK pop star Olivia Dean to perform on Saturday 17 October, 2026. Dean’s headline show is being moved from Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland’s Spark Arena across the city to Western Springs Bowl following exceptional ticket demand. The Tāmaki show at Western Springs Bowl is shaping up to be the tour's "jewel in the crown" moment. Work on the Western Springs Bowl concert configuration will conclude in October, with the installation of semi-permanent concert staging and two new hospitality spaces. American rock icons Foo Fighters are the next act scheduled to perform at Western Springs Bowl in January 2027.
