Boh Runga and her band will join The Electric Confectionaires, Batucada Sound Machine, Tahuna Breaks and the Andrew White Band in a full day music festival at the Coromandel Area School, Coromandel Town, on Sunday, January 3rd -- the day after the famous Keltic Fair and on the same grounds.
The new festival is presented by the Coromandel Education Advancement Charitable Trust, CEDACT and operates in cooperation with the Keltic Fair the day before. All proceeds past expenses will benefit education in Coromandel and the Coromandel Area School in particular.
The event is running from 11am in the morning and will close at 7pm. Food and trade stalls are on site to cater to the patrons, as well as a beer tent. “The event is designed as a great summer family day out to celebrate the New Year”, says Thomas Everth, Chairman of CEDACT. “The programme presents some of New Zealand’s best current artists and bands with UK singer/songwriter Andrew White also performing with his band”.
Tickets are $45 for adults and $20 for 10 to 16 year olds, while under 10’s are free of charge. Tickets are sold through iTicket. Call 0508 iTicket or 0508 484253.
