Māoriland festival moves to Matariki

Annette from Waikanae

Each March the world comes together in Ōtaki to celebrate Indigenous screen storytelling at Māoriland Film Festival, the largest Indigenous film festival in the Southern Hemisphere.

This year the decision has been made to postpone to Matariki 2022. New dates will be announced on the Māoriland website shortly.

Launched in 2014, the Māoriland festival is a celebration of Indigenous voices and storytelling on film – uplifting the perspectives and stories of Indigenous people.
