Harmony Waikato Spectacular
Thrill to the amazing sound of three of New Zealand's leading choruses plus our top quartets, all singing in four-part harmony. The rich male voices of Mighty River Harmony, the sparkle of the mixed youth chorus Manu Manu Mātātahi , and the dazzle of the Waikato Rivertones Women's chorus - each has won medals in competitions. As well, gold medal men's and women's quartets, including national winners The Usual Suspects and Unlimited, will entertain along with superb new mixed quartets.
Late in September they compete again in the Barbershop Harmony NZ Convention in Wellington. This is their chance to entertain you with their competition songs in preparation for the contest.
"I was blown away - I didn't know we had such talent in the Waikato" is a typical comment from audience members after previous shows. Don't miss this one!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
