In early 2019, the Rock & Roll Hall of Famers will travel Down Under for a series of five dates, starting February 26 with a show in Auckland, New Zealand.  They’ll also play a concert in Dunedin, New Zealand, before heading to Australia for three more shows.

These tour dates mark the Eagles’ first visit to Australia and New Zealand in four years, but of course they have a different lineup now.  In addition to Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit, the band has added Deacon Frey — the son of late Eagles co-founder Glenn Frey — and country superstar Vince Gill.

As previously reported, The Eagles will release the career retrospective package Legacy — available as either a 15-LP or 12-CD/DVD/Blu-ray set — on November 2.

Here are all of the band’s Down Under dates:

2/26 — Auckland, New Zealand, Spark Arena
3/2 — Dunedin, New Zealand, Forsyth Barr Stadium
3/5 — Melbourne, Australia, Rod Laver Arena
3/9 — Brisbane, Australia, Brisbane Entertainment Centre
3/13 — Sydney, Australia, Qudos Bank Arena
