New Zealand country-pop powerhouse Kaylee Bell is hitting the road this November for her biggest headline shows to date, announcing the ‘Cowboy Up Tour’, a five-date tour through some of the country’s most iconic theatres.

The announcement comes off the back of a whirlwind 18 months that’s seen Bell cement her place as one of Australasia’s leading artists. From winning Best Female Artist at the 2024 Golden Guitar Awards, winning at Global Country Music Artist at the 2023 CMA awards, releasing her chart-topping album Nights Like This, to performing to her biggest ever live audience in March at CMC Rocks in Queensland, and becoming a first time mother, Kaylee’s star power continues to rise. 

Beginning at Michael Fowler Centre in Wellington on Tuesday 4 November, the Cowboy Up Tour then heads north to The Civic in Auckland on Saturday 8 November, followed by three shows in the South Island. Thursday 13 November at Civic Theatre in Invercargill, Friday 14 November at the Regent Theatre in Dunedin with the grand finale at the iconic Christchurch Town Hall on Saturday 15 November. 

Fans can expect a full-throttle live show featuring Bell’s biggest hits — from the viral, banjo infused Cowboy Up and most recent single Red Dirt Romeo, to her smash radio singles Boots N’ All and Good Things, along with fan favourites. 

These shows mark a major milestone in Bell’s touring career. It’ll be her first Wellington headline performance since 2023, and the first time playing venues of this scale in all five cities. 

Kaylee Bell has carved out a career that bridges Nashville polish with Kiwi grit. This tour promises to be her boldest and most exciting yet, bringing people of all ages together for a night to remember.
