Ready to dust off your vocal cords and relive those epic road-trip sing-alongs? Iconic GRAMMY-winning band Train is heading to Auckland on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, for a one-night-only performance at the Great Hall (Auckland Town Hall). If the thought of screaming “Hey, Soul Sister” with thousands of fellow fans doesn’t excite you, we’re not sure what will.
This isn’t just any tour—it’s part of Train’s long-awaited Australia and New Zealand 2025 journey, following a summer of sold-out shows across the U.S. Their Auckland show promises to be an absolute vibe, packed with their biggest hits from the last three decades. Think “Drops of Jupiter” (cue the feels), “Drive By” (instant bop), and the ARIA-certified smash “Play That Song”. Basically, this is your chance to see a masterclass in pop-rock brilliance.
Tickets? Here’s the scoop:
Early bird pre-sales start Wednesday, December 11, at 10am. Want in? Get yourself signed up ASAP. Not quick enough on the draw? No worries—general sales kick off Friday, December 13, at 11am on DestroyAllLines.com. Consider this your friendly reminder to set an alarm. Or two.
Why should you care? Well, Train isn’t just a band—they’re a musical institution. Since 1994, they’ve racked up more hits than you’ve had hot dinners, with 14 Billboard Hot 100 singles and over 30 million tracks sold worldwide. Their 2001 hit “Drops of Jupiter” won two GRAMMYs and stayed on the charts for what felt like forever. Meanwhile, “Hey, Soul Sister” became the most downloaded song of 2010, hit Diamond status in 2021, and surpassed a billion Spotify streams in 2022. Casual.
It’s not just about the tunes either. Train’s frontman, Pat Monahan, is a legend in his own right. When he’s not belting out bangers, he’s crafting award-winning wines with his Save Me, San Francisco Wine Co., which supports families of children battling life-threatening illnesses. Oh, and he dabbles in acting, starring in everything from Hawaii Five-0 to his own Hallmark Christmas movie. Seriously, is there anything this man can’t do?
Whether you’ve been a fan since “Meet Virginia” or you fell in love with “50 Ways to Say Goodbye,” this is the gig you’ll be kicking yourself for missing. Auckland, this one’s going to be unforgettable—don’t sleep on it.
