😁 AUCKLAND INTERNATIONAL BUSKERS FESTIVAL. CBD. Auckland Anniversary Long Weekend Friday 23 January - Monday 26 January 2026

Helen from Totara Vale

Get ready for four epic days of street magic, laughs, and jaw-dropping talent Auckland’s International Buskers Festival is back from Friday 23 – Monday 26 January, taking over the Waterfront and CBD with non-stop entertainment and good vibes. From 12pm–7pm daily (Friday 12pm–3pm), the city will be buzzing with incredible acts — think mind-blowing ball tricks, laugh-out-loud comedy, wild circus skills, and even next-level Double Dutch skipping and dance from Britain’s Got Talent Golden Buzzer winners Haribow. Find buskers popping up all around Auckland’s Waterfront Harbour and the CBD — grab some mates, hit the streets, and get ready to be amazed! Remember, street performers make their living on your generosity. If you enjoy a show and can afford it, please put a donation in the hat. Loose change is nice but to really make a difference, paper money would be much appreciated. Here is a website link to the Performers and Festival info www.aucklandbuskersfestival.co.nz...

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new
