Mānawa maiea te putanga o Matariki!
New Year. New foyer. New show!
The Tīwhas and their whānau return to Circa this Matariki with a brand new edition of The Tīwhas: A Matariki Spectacular to celebrate the Māori New Year. Join the Tīwhas for kai, waiata and remembrance as they take you on a journey through the stars of Matariki.
Kai and wai are included in the ticket price, with entree, desserts and other drinks available for purchase on the evening. Simply select your choice of main meal on the night.
Fill your wairua cup at Circa’s hearth, as the queens – Dame Jthan, Pania, Slay West and Tina Coco Couture – dazzle you with their all new cabaret set-list of galactic hits! Including waiata Māori, old school classics and pop that spans decades! Accompanied by Ngāti Tīwha– Hayden Taylor, Tom Knowles and Kree Matthews – this whānau promises an unforgettable evening of fun, costumes, choreography and joyful celebration of te tau hou Māori and mana takatāpui.
Come check out the newly renovated foyer space at Circa Theatre and celebrate Matariki in style, on the waterfront! The new restaurant Chouchou will take care of all the kai needs on the night – with a bespoke Matariki themed menu.
Mānawatia a Matariki!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
