The Team from Resene ColorShop Silverdale

The Art Battle Auckland Grand Final

At Eden Park

Friday 30 May 2025

Doors open 6pm, first round of painting starts at 7pm!

Over the course of a year Art Battle Auckland has showcased a huge range of artists painting LIVE to audiences here in Auckland and streamed to the rest of the world. And now we are down to our final 12 artists - as voted by YOU!

These 12 artists will compete on the night to be the Art Battle champion! Plus watch the Spotlight Artists who will bring even more magic to the night.

With so much talent under one roof and a chance to win a Resene voucher, it is sure to be a night to remember!

Art Battle is the planet’s biggest LIVE painting competition across 70+ cities worldwide. These artists battle it out with paint on canvas over fast paced rounds of high energy speed painting.

The audience decides their fate with interactive voting/bidding. And if you love one of the artworks, you can bid for it via silent auction and take it home with you!
