Known for their infectious energy and unique blend of waiata Māori and party classics, The Harmonic Resonators will have everyone up and dancing with their lush harmonies and high-energy jams. Next up, King Cool , hailing from Paeroa, will take the stage, bringing their powerful vocals, rock, and soul sounds that are rooted in their Māori heritage, keeping the good vibes going all afternoon.

There’s plenty to keep everyone entertained. Kids will love the arts and crafts, games, and activities to keep them busy throughout the day. And remember, we’re all about sustainability, so please bring your own water bottle or reusable cup to help us minimize waste.
