Here is the Official Announcement and Schedule for the 2006 World Tour in which Hayley will be supporting Il Divo. World? Well Europe and North America anyway, we don't yet know what's happening on the Australian leg in March (cheers Richard!)
26th October 2005 - PRESS RELEASE - IL DIVO TOUR 2006
<<PRESS RELEASE >>
HAYLEY WESTENRA TO TOUR WITH IL DIVO FROM JANUARY 2006
18 year-old International singing sensation HAYLEY WESTENRA will be joining IL DIVO for their extensive tour of North America and Europe, from January 2006.
Kicking off at the end of January 2006 in the US, the tour will see Hayley open for Il Divo throughout the US and Canada and hit the road in Europe from late March onwards, covering Ireland and the UK, Sweden, Finland, Norway Denmark Germany, Holland, Austria, Switzerland, Spain and France.
This is a very exciting development in the dynamic career of our stunning young star, who has already achieved so much for her tender years: Hayley has performed for royalty and heads of state including Her Majesty The Queen of England, President George Bush and Prime Minister Tony Blair as well as performing in some of the world’s most prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall and the Sydney Opera House. She is also the youngest ever Ambassador for UNICEF!
Following the success of her debut album, Pure, which sold over 2 million copies worldwide, Hayley has just released her second album Odyssey – which shot straight to number 10 in the pop charts. Odyssey showcases Hayley’s new found vocal maturity and features a new rendition of Joni Mitchell’s ‘Both Sides Now’, as well as an inspired duet ‘https://i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifell’Amore Non Si Sa’ with worldwide icon AndreaBocelli.
No stranger to sharing the stage with some very famous Tenors, Hayley has sung with Bryn Terfel, Andrea Bocelli, Jose Carreras and now, she’s very excited to be supporting the four dashing young Tenors, who are IL DIVO.
Catch Hayley Westenra and Il Divo on the following dates:
HW URGENT RELEASE FROM HW.COM: the Il Divo tourdates that we published on Hayley's site late yesterday afternoon are apparently unconfirmed/not complete. In the interests of keeping artist management happy both HW and HWI have removed them and will update as soon as further, accurate, confirmation has been received
Simon (thanks to Wim for this timely advice)
I've moved the original thread on this subject from the 2005 to this 2006 board.

PS by Dave: A word or two of caution for anyone buying tickets for an Il Divo concert ( I have!):
a) Hayley seems to be the supporting act, therefore, if she does not or is unable to appear, tickets might not be refundable. This aspect should be covered in the Terms and Conditions of the ticket agency.
b) As Il Divo fans have been buying tickets for nearly a week now, you could end up a long way back in these very large Arenas
