The Warratahs at Carterton Events Centre Sat 22nd July

One of Wairarapa’s all time favourite winter warmer gigs is back: The Warratahs.
For an incredible 37 years, this band has extensively toured New Zealand, along the way picking up Country Album of The Year at the Tui Music Awards in 2017, and releasing 7 charting studio albums.
Two new songs from Barry Saunders, namely ‘Goin’ Up North’ and ‘Silver Train’, will feature at the Carterton show, along with the many other songs of Barry’s that are permanent entries in the New Zealand Song Book.
The Warratahs are so much a part of the landscape, you might hear the odd cover but really, it’s the sound that The Warratahs have made their own and it’s become part of the NZ landscape. Poetic lyrics skidding along on an exciting blend of accordion, fiddle, drums, and guitar. Don't miss The Warratahs, Carterton Events Centre
this Saturday 22nd July 8pm Tickets available at:

Tap Fusion opens Wellington Fringe Festival

TAP Fusion

New Zealand’s home-grown Tap Dance show, Tap Fusion, will be opening the Wellington Fringe Festival at the Hannah Theatre this weekend. The show is a unique collaboration of New Zealand’s top Tap dancers performing alongside artists of Street Dance, Swing Dance and live musicians. This will be the first time a Tap show has been seen at the Fringe Festival.

Tap Fusion is the work of former New Zealand Dance Champion brothers Brandon and Cameron Carter-Chan. They say the show is designed to expose the diversity of New Zealand artists through Tap Dance by inspiring, uplifting, and promoting the idea of creative collaboration, encouraging people to work with artists outside their social circle, and to increase opportunity and strengthen the arts community as a whole.


Tap Fusion is on at The Hannah Theatre, 12 Cambridge Terrace, Wellington on 13th & 14th February.
