New Order announces Hawaii shows
British rock band New Order announced its 2018 tour dates today, and it included October dates on Oahu and Maui among the seven bookings.
The band rose out of the ashes of the post-punk band Joy Division in the early 1980s and were among the first to successfully fuse rock and electronic music, racking up dance-floor hits such as “True Faith,” “Blue Monday” and “Bizarre Love Triangle.”
New Order plays the Maui Arts & Cultural Center on Oct. 3 and Neal S. Blaisdell Arena at 8 p.m. on Oct. 5. Tickets for both shows go on sale at 10 a.m. on June 29 to the general public, though MACC members can buy tickets to the Maui show beginning on June 26 at 10 a.m.. Oahu tickets will be sold at the Blaisdell Box Office, on ticketmaster.com and by calling 1-800-745-3000. Prices for the Blaisdell date range in price from $45 to $125 plus fees. For the MACC show, tickets will cost $49 to $150 and can be bought at the MACC box office or by calling 808-242-7469.
