Leftfield

MG Live and Frontier Touring proudly announce Leftfield – one of electronic music’s all-time greatest acts – with very special headline shows for 2026 as they continue their celebration of their 35th anniversary (36 at the time of writing).

Speaking on the shows, Neil Barnes shared, “It will be 36 years since I released the first Leftfield track, ‘Not Forgotten’, and 31 years now of Leftism. It feels like the perfect time to celebrate and I’m so pleased that finally we get to come back to New Zealand and Australia. Let’s make it unforgettable. Can’t wait to see you there!”

The iconic British pioneers of progressive house and experimental electronic music will launch their March 2026 tour in New Zealand, starting at Auckland’s Powerstation on Sunday 1 March, and continuing at Meow Nui in Wellington on Monday 2 March. They then head to Australia for a run of east coast dates, beginning at The Tivoli in Brisbane on Thursday 5 March, followed by Sydney’s Enmore Theatre on Saturday 7 March, and concluding at Live at the Gardens in Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens on Sunday 8 March.

Frontier Member presale commences Friday 5 December 11am local time before the general on sale kicks off Monday 8 December 12pm local time. Tickets and tour information: via frontiertouring.com/leftfield

Leftfield’s most recent release was a collection of remixes of ‘Full Way Round (Ft Grian Chatten)’, and they have also been touring across the UK and Europe throughout 2025 to bring their 2022 album This Is What We Do to life.

About Leftfield
Formed in 1988, Leftfield quickly became one of the most influential and innovative dance music acts of all time. Originally comprised of Neil Barnes and Paul Daley, Leftfield’s legendary live-performances paired with seminal albums, 1995s Leftism and 1999s Rhythm & Stealth (both Mercury Music Prize nominees), solidified their position as true pioneers.

Leftfield returned with the acclaimed Alternative Light Source in 2015, before releasing This Is What We Do in 2022, to rave 4* reviews from the likes of The Observer, MOJO, Evening Standard and Daily Telegraph. The album was crafted by Neil Barnes with long-time studio and mix engineer Adam Wren, and features guest contributions from Fontaines D.C. frontman Grian Chatten, Lemn Sissay and more.
