Artists For Palestine is a "fundraiser, celebration of Palestinian beauty, and call to action," a new ongoing series of live events aiming to heighten awareness of and resistance to Israel’s occupation and devastation of Palestinian territories in Gaza, ruled to be illegal by the International Court of Justice last week. Hosted at Tāmaki Makaurau's Big Fan, the first Artists For Palestine all-ages lineup includes 2023 Best Māori Female Solo Artist winner Jordyn with a Why, Iranian / Aotearoa superstar CHAII, bilingual (te reo Māori and English) rap trailblazer Swizl Jager and even more.

The Big Fan musical hub have also just announced their latest intakes for the IGNITE programme in Tāmaki Makaurau and Pōneke, an initiative that "nurtures and empowers rangatahi with a passion for music and events" — you can learn more and apply HERE. Head along and show your support for this crucial cause on Sunday 11th August, early start at 5.30pm...

"76 years + 10 months of brutal occupation. We’re watching a genocide live streamed, while our government - and the world - sit idly by, and refuse even basic aid to the families. Art is intrinsically political, and music is one of the most powerful ways to make our voices heard. We, the musical artists of Aotearoa, are taking a stand today. If our government won’t provide aid, we will raise the money ourselves. Join Jordyn with a Why, CHAII, Swizl Jager, Idol Essence, TAMiii & day13n, along with their bands and DJs PLASTiC, The Man Shamz, and SKIIMASQ, for a fundraiser, celebration of Palestinian beauty, and call to action. The first of many Artists for Palestine events, this unforgettable convergence of talent, in the name of a free and self-determined Palestinian people, will take place on Sunday, August 11th at BIG FAN in Morningside, Auckland".
