In a move that’s sure to devastate ladies of my vintage, it looks like the New Kids on the Block tour is off.
While the event is still showing on the websites for the Burswood Dome and entertainment centres in Newcastle, Wollongong, and Brisbane, the concert has disappeared from the listings for both Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne and Acer Arena in Sydney.
The Adelaide Entertainment Centre website confirms what the other sites point to, with a statement reading “The New Kids On The Block Tour has been cancelled. Patrons who have purchased tickets for the concert will have their ticket refunded.”
It’s rumoured that poor ticket sales are behind the cancellation. Confirmation from the promoter Andrew McManus Presents is expected tomorrow.
