Tommy Emmanuel CGP - Living In The Light Tour
NEW ZEALAND 2026
Special guest: Mike Dawes
World-renowned guitarist and master entertainer TOMMY EMMANUEL, CGP is thrilled to announce what is sure to be an unforgettable tour of New Zealand in May 2026.
The five-date tour takes in Auckland, Hamilton, Palmerston North, Wellington and Christchurch.
TOMMY EMMANUEL, CGP is a living legend in the world of acoustic guitar, celebrated for his jaw- dropping technique, innovation, and boundless musicality. He has enthralled audiences around the globe with his dazzling fingerstyle performances, and now, New Zealand will have the privilege of witnessing his mastery up close and personal.
“I feel like the Indiana Jones of the guitar world,” says the globe-trotting fingerpicker. “I’m on this wild journey, just making it up as I go, and I’m thrilled that so many people are having fun joining along with me.”
TOMMY EMMANUEL Hailed as “one of the best acoustic guitarists in the world” by NPR’s World Cafe, Tommy Emmanuel got his start at the age of six, when he first began touring his native Australia with his family’s band. As a teenager, he earned a reputation as a highly sought after sideman and session player, and by his early twenties, Emmanuel was playing on chart-topping hits and performing with acts like Air Supply and Men at Work.
