The band will play in Auckland in November
Tool will make their long-awaited return to New Zealand, announcing an exclusive Auckland headline show at Spark Arena on Saturday, November 22nd. Renowned for their mind-bending musicianship, boundary-pushing visuals, and one of the most powerful live experiences in rock, the group will deliver an unmissable night for Aotearoa fans, marking their first performance in the country in five years.
Presales start on Thursday, September 18th, ahead of the general sale on Monday, September 22nd at noon local time.
Formed in 1990, Tool, featuring drummer Danny Carey, bassist Justin Chancellor, guitarist Adam Jones, and frontman Maynard James Keenan, is one of the most groundbreaking, muscular heavy bands of our era. They have redefined the possibilities of rock through complex, hypnotic compositions and unparalleled live production through their five studio albums.
Fear Inoculum debuted at No. 1 in New Zealand, the band’s third consecutive No. 1 in the country.
Tool has been on the road in 2025, including performing their first-ever set at Lollapalooza Argentina in March, joining the festival also in Chile and Brazil. In July, they also paid tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, joining the late rocker onstage at Black Sabbath’s final reunion show.
