Aotearoa Gigs For The Weekend

There are a whole lot of excellent shows happening across Aotearoa this weekend, and that's how we like it! Delve into our selection of gigs happening this weekend below — more HERE. Don't go deleting your vax pass just yet, as many venues still require the Vaccine Pass on entry, plus don't forget to bring your I.D. too. Secure your spot by grabbing presale tickets while you can...

If you're planning a live show and / or tour in the near future, we're here to help with our free (for organisers) ticketing service — you can get the ball rolling by adding your gig HERE.
