A celebration of our city in full colour.

For 18 unforgettable days and nights, we invite you to see our city in a new light.

Bring your whānau to the Festival Garden in Aotea Square and enjoy free music. Step inside the sensation of the Spiegeltent for our enthralling cabaret. Be moved by powerful visual art and lose yourself in the stories unfolding on our many stages. Wherever you go, the Festival is your invitation to fall in love with Tāmaki Makaurau; its people, its places and its pulse.

This is your city. This is your Festival.

Let’s celebrate everything good about it, together.
