Pōneke's Mermaidens have announced a multi-stage outdoor extravaganza for March, celebrating eight years together as a group. The team of Gussie Larkin, Lily West and Abe Hollingsworth's cheekily titled Mermgrown Festival offers a thrillingly diverse alternative to its namesake Homegrown in the lineup department, boasting a stacked bill of should-be-household-names including Kane Strang (solo), Womb, Big Flip the Massive, Ana Te Kōtiro, Motte, Ludus and even more. There'll also be an art market, stylish merch to cop, and lots of delish food and drinks to enjoy – head along to the first instalment of Mermgrown this March, with 40% of profits being donated to Wellington Rape Crisis...

UPDATE 17/03/20: Pōneke's Mermgrown Festival is sadly now cancelled, read Mermaiden's statement & info for ticket holders here.

Press release:

Mermgrown is a one-day outdoor festival dreamt up by Mermaidens to celebrate 8 years playing together! This is our last gig for a while, so we've invited some good friends to join the party.

From Kane Strang, who we shared the stage with at Chick's Hotel for one of our first gigs - to WOMB, who bravely let us take over their parents garage to jam in when we were a lil baby band.

40% of profits will be donated to Wellington Rape Crisis.

~Two Stages~ ~Art Market~ ~Merch~ ~Food & Drink~

This event is not BYO - there is a bar with all the cheap drinks you could possibly dream of. There will be food from Two Girls One Taco & non-alcoholic drinks for purchase. You are welcome to bring a picnic - please no alcoholic drinks though.

Tickets are limited!! Seriously!
