The certified ‘King of Romance’, Engelbert Humperdinck returns to Australia this June and July with ‘The Celebration Tour.’

Englebert will perform shows in New Zealand before heading to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth winding up the tour in Sydney. Tickets to all shows will be available from Tuesday 10thFebruary.

The Australasian dates are an extension of his United States tour, which begins this month in Arizona. The British icon will present selections from his comprehensive and acclaimed repertoire, performing with the support of his band.

Englebert last performed in Australia in 2024 with reviews leaving no doubt he is still at the top of his game:

‘…a masterclass in stagecraft’ – The Music

‘… Humperdinck is astounding. The love he endures within so many is well deserved. A treasure, it was an absolute pleasure to have seen such a legend…’. – Scenestr

‘To be in the audience of such a legend was a blessing’ – Noise 11

Engelbert who turns 90 on 2nd May, has enjoyed a remarkable career spanning over 60 years with record sales in excess of 150 million, including 64 gold albums and 35 platinum, four Grammy nominations, a Golden Globe, and stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Las Vegas Walk of Fame, and Leicester Walk of Fame.

His enduring popularity is attributed not only to his remarkable vocal talent, but also to his engaging personality, characterised by a distinctive sense of humour and self-effacing remarks. These qualities have helped retain a devoted fan base and, more recently, attracted a younger audience through platforms such as YouTube and social media.

Engelbert exploded on to the music scene with The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. The shy handsome man catapulted almost instantly to world icon. He became great friends with Elvis and the two legends often performed each other’s songs. His first single in the charts was “Release Me,” which went into the Guinness Book of Records for achieving 56 consecutive weeks on the charts. It was No. 1 in 11 countries. The following decades see Engelbert constantly touring the world to sell-out crowds. He takes great pleasure in every moment on stage.

His music has transcended time, and his voice continues to reach out to people now – serving to transport and inspire, to embrace and to provoke feelings and emotions…ingredients that are no doubt the essence of his long-lasting success.

Engelbert’s hit song ‘A Man Without Love’ was featured in Marvel’s ‘Moon Knight’ Disney+ Series. In Sony Pictures’ new Brad Pitt film ‘Bullet Train’ Engelbert’s song ‘Forever Blowing Bubbles’ is featured. And in Netflix’s ‘Umbrella Academy” his ‘Quando, Quando, Quando’ is heard.

In November 2023 Englebert released the documentary ‘Englebert Humperdinck: The Legend Continues’. With unprecedented access to him and his close family, friends and business associates, director Steven Murray delivers a heart-warming chronicle – shot across two continents at locations close to Engelbert’s heart – which shines an insider’s light on this multitalented, yet humble and unexpectedly humorous musical genius. The documentary offers a unique insight into the world of Humperdinck, including never before seen concert footage and funny, frank and touching narration by Engelbert himself.
