Port Noise Festival 2025

After two consecutive sell out years, Ōhinehou Lyttelton’s own Port Noise Festival makes its climactic return on March 1st, 2025.

Our second line-up release includes psychedelic hype-jazz ensemble Closing, Italo crate diggers channeling pure Balearic sensibility Craigslist, blown out Tāmaki garage duo Elliot & Vincent, ferocious improv supergroup Farewell Spit, club personality gymnasts Ngāsti, Ōtepoti indie noise makers Pearly, Melbourne’s poignant powerhouse Sarah Mary Chadwick (AUS), Ōhinehou industrial soundscape designers TJOPI&HK, and balaclava cladded electro crooner Uncle Quentin.

This diverse and talented bunch are joined by our initial lineup of course, which consisted of guitar pop legend David Kilgour & The Heavy Eights, hazy jangle king Jim Nothing, Tāmaki skuzz-punk supergroup O/PUS, alt-techno prodigy Mr Meaty Boy, Ngāti Hine bass-lord Mokotron, Puerto Rican analogue sun-soaked dubs-dealer Pachyman (PR), Nebraskan poet and Americana hero Simon Joyner & The Eucalypts (USA) , and Melbourne-via-Invercargill shapeshifting rave apparition Vanessa Worm.

All remaining GA tickets are now available through Undertheradar.co.nz.
