Aotearoa Level 2 Gigs For The Weekend

We're here to dispel the myth that there's nothing going on in Aotearoa right now with our latest guide to gigs happening across the country this weekend (outside of Tāmaki Makaurau) under Alert Level 2. Highlights from this week's ever-expanding batch of seated shows include the legendary John Halvorsen's (Bailterspace, The Gordons) new project Vörsen at Whanganui Musician's Club, Pōneke songwriter Michael Llewellyn's album release tour with Violet Hirst, rising stars ZÖ and Belladonna at the capital's San Fran, Lake South's The Light You Throw album launch events in Palmerston North and Whanganui plus lots more.

Don't forget that masks and social distancing are required under Level 2, but gigs are no longer capped at a specific number of attendees — check out the updated Level 2 guidelines for bars HERE and for events / entertainment HERE. We recommend grabbing presale tickets for the shows below (where available) while you can...
