Vector Lights for World of Cultures 2026_OA_stw4okuw.png

Vector Lights is celebrating our multicultural city, Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, with the World of Cultures Festival! In recognition of Race Relations Day (21 March), watch the Auckland Harbour Bridge ignite with vibrant fabric patterns from different cultures. 

Did you know you can listen live to the accompanying soundtrack featuring Auckland musicians Geneva AM, Kieran Tahir, and Ch! Nonso on the Vector Lights website? This unique compilation was sourced and mixed by DJ Stinky Jim with a nod to Auckland's City of Music status. 

The dynamic light and sound show will play from Saturday 21 March to Thursday 26 March from 7.45pm until midnight, every 15 minutes.

Gather with friends and whānau to watch Vector Lights from one of the many viewing spots around Tāmaki Makaurau. Some of your favourites include Little Shoal Bay, Hobson Wharf and Maungauika North Head.

Vector Lights is part of a smart energy partnership between Vector, Auckland Council and NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi.
