Coasties dreaming of a soul-stirring night out might want to pop Sunday 14 December in the calendar.

Oprah Winfrey is making her way back to New Zealand for a special event at Spark Arena, and it's shaping up to be an unforgettable evening.

Called ‘Oprah In Conversation: Presented by Lilly’, the one-night-only show will see Oprah share personal stories, life lessons, and reflections on resilience, purpose and reinvention.

It's a rare chance to hear directly from one of the world’s most respected voices in a format that promises honest, heartfelt conversation. Not a performance, but a moment of connection.

Locals who caught her last time know the energy she brings.

“The warmth and spirit I felt from audiences in New Zealand have stayed with me,” she said in a release.

“This tour is a chance to reconnect, reflect, and be reinspired, together.”

Pre-sale tickets start rolling out on Wednesday 6 August at 10:00, with general sales opening Friday 8 August at 12:00.

Coasties heading into the city should plan early, it’s bound to sell fast.

Whether you grew up watching her iconic talk show or have since followed her book club, podcasts or philanthropic work, this is a chance to be part of something inspiring just before Christmas.

Feel like a spark of Oprah magic might be just what you need this year?

You won’t be the only one.
