Ladies and germs, introducing Strange Universe - Autumn Edition, a new show series in March 2026, featuring the return of American psych lord Ty Segall and his scorching band, Norwegian duo of the moment Smerz, Swedish noise makers Les Big Byrd, Anatolian psych-folk sensation Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek, and eternally excellent Flying Nun favourite The Bats celebrating their 2025 already-classic album Corner Coming Up!
The full line-up across March is yet to be unveiled, but this first announcement is enough to melt our minds and have us looking forward to the new year like never before… And you better believe we are planning Strange Universe WINTER Edition already…
THE BATS - SATURDAY 7 MARCH - HOLLYWOOD AVONDALE
The local legends of our line-up, The Bats scarcely need any introduction, but just in case you’ve been living under a rock. For over forty years this reliably delightful Flying Nun quartet have been responsible for soothing us, getting us dancing, and creating some of the most note perfect South Island sound you’re ever likely to hear. With their eleventh album Corner Coming Up just released to audience acclaim, there’s no finer time to catch this perfect pop band for their first Tāmaki Makaurau headline show in yonks.
