Harry Styles required to take part in New Zealand 2023 census
Harry Styles is legally obligated to take part in New Zealand's upcoming 2023 census, as his only concert in the country takes place on the same day.
On 7 March, Harry Styles will play his only Love On Tour show in New Zealand. He'll play Auckland's MT Smart Stadium with Wet Leg as support, and both acts will be required to take part in the country's 2023 census, which is conducted every five years.
Styles obviously doesn't live in New Zealand, nor have any ties to the country, but New Zealand's census account on Twitter has confirmed that "Everyone who is in Aotearoa New Zealand on census night (Tuesday 7 March) needs to be counted in the census. This includes tourists, visitors, and former members of One Direction."
Kia ora @coupdemain CC: the country. Thank you for this important query.

If Styles and Wet Leg choose not to participate, or provide false information, they could be fined up to NZ$2,000, which is just over £1,000.
