Boyzone and Westlife stars bring tour to Torquay

Boyzlife, featuring Boyzone’s Keith Duffy and Westlife’s Brian McFadden, will bring their UK tour to the Princess Theatre in Torquay on 20 February 2026.

The duo builds on the success of Boyzone and Westlife, two of the most influential groups of the 90s and 00s boyband era. Together, they achieved more than 21 UK number-one singles and performed to millions of fans worldwide.

Keith and Brian will perform a mix of Boyzone and Westlife’s classic hits, as well as their own original music, following their successful 2025 UK tour and upcoming world tour. The 24-date tour will run throughout February and March, with Torquay as the only stop in Devon.

Keith and Brian said: "We're absolutely thrilled to announce our 2026 tour! The incredible memories we created during our 2025 shows have us counting down the days until we can hit the road again and reunite with all of our amazing fans. Brace yourselves for more unforgettable nights filled with music, laughter, and possibly some special guests joining us along the way. Can’t wait to see you all in 2026!"

The resurgence of 1990s boyband nostalgia has been fuelled by recent documentaries such as Boyband Forever (BBC) and Boyzone: No Matter What (Sky), along with the Robbie Williams biopic Better Man. Fans appear more eager than ever to experience the defining sounds of the era.

Boyzlife was formed in 2016 after Keith and Brian had left their respective bands. Since then, the duo has performed for over 300,000 fans worldwide at events, including Carfest, Rewind Festival, and Pub in the Park.

Their first shows started as autobiographical ones, with Keith and Brian sharing stories from their times in Boyzone and Westlife. Scattered among the tales were performances of several of each band’s biggest hits.

The high demand from fans for more shows with more music led to Boyzlife touring a show showcasing the music from Keith and Brian’s iconic catalogues.

Almost 10 years later, what started as a tour of small venues has turned into world tours with a full live band, special effects and pyrotechnics.

During his time with Westlife, Brian achieved seven consecutive UK and Ireland number-one singles, 12 chart-toppers overall, and helped the band sell over 30 million records globally. He later found solo success, scoring a UK number-one hit with Real to Me.

Keith also enjoyed remarkable success with Boyzone, securing six UK number-one singles and achieving top five status with 16 of the group’s first 17 releases. Boyzone sold over 25 million records worldwide and had five number-one albums.

As Boyzlife continues to evolve, Keith and Brian are dedicated to producing new music that reflects their growth as artists and their love for the craft. Their latest single, ‘Dancing with the Echoes’, a track celebrating the lives of those they have lost, achieved BBC Radio 2 playlist status.

The 2026 Boyzlife tour will feature a mix of hits from both Boyzone and Westlife, including I Love The Way You Love Me, All That I Need, and No Matter What from Boyzone, as well as My Love, I Lay My Love On You, and Uptown Girl from Westlife.
