Hilary Duff gave fans a night of nostalgia, sing-along anthems and early-2000s magic as she performed at Auckland’s Spark Arena on October 20, 2026, marking her first-ever concert in New Zealand.
Part of her The Lucky Me Tour, the show brought together music from across Duff’s career, blending the songs that defined her Disney-era fame with tracks from her latest album, luck… or something. From “Wake Up” and “So Yesterday” to “Roommates” and “Mature,” the setlist offered a lively mix of familiar favourites and newer material.
One of the evening’s standout moments came when Duff performed “The Getaway” on tour for the first time since 2008. The excitement continued through “Come Clean” and “Why Not,” before the concert reached its nostalgic high point with “What Dreams Are Made Of.” Balloons and confetti filled the arena as fans sang along to the beloved The Lizzie McGuire Movie anthem.
The crowd embraced the occasion with butterfly hair clips, sequins, pastel pink outfits and throwback looks inspired by Duff’s iconic on-screen characters. The atmosphere felt like a celebration of the generation that grew up watching her, while also welcoming younger fans discovering her music today.
