The World Choir Games are coming to Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland in July 2024 and we want you to be a part of it to ensure it is truly the Games of Welcome! We are recruiting a team of 400 volunteers to help coordinate the biggest choral competition in the world. Volunteers will be assisting each choir navigate their way around Auckland, and ensure they know how to get to each of their competition venues, as well as recommending other activities to do in Auckland.
Volunteers will also play a pivotal role in ensuring each concert, competition and ceremony runs smoothly by assisting with back of house event operations, greeting spectators upon arrival as well as assisting with any media inquiries and personnel. Additionally, with choirs from all around the world, we are looking for volunteers who speak multiple languages to assist with translation for each choir during their time in New Zealand.
This is the first time the World Choir Games have come to the Oceania region so it's an opportunity not to be missed to be part of the vibrant, exciting and fun atmosphere that comes with over 300 international choirs coming together.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
80.3% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
19.7% No. This would be impossible in practice.
