Aotearoa Gigs For The Weekend

This week brought news of a loosening of audience restrictions for shows, but indoor events will still be required to be spaced out and seated, rendering the increased audience capacity from 100 to 200 (from 11:59pm on Friday 25 March) functionally irrelevant for many small venue spaces. Subsequently it's still quiet on the local gig front this weekend, but there's a smattering of gems out there to check out. Our live music community still urgently needs your support — you can do your bit by heading along to a limited capacity show from any (or all) of the options below, even more in our gig guide HERE. Secure your spot by grabbing presale tickets while you can (this supports artists directly), plus don't forget to bring your My Vaccine Pass and photo ID...
