Kupe: New Zealand Festival

The Kupe New Zealand Festival is held on the 23rd of December 2018. The Kupe New Zealand Festival is when the Maori and Polynesian are travelled by boat to the Wellington shore. Millions are gathered together and stand on the waterfront for the festival. Inspired by the arrival in Aotearoa of great navigator and explorer Kupe, this free, whānau-friendly spectacular is part of A Waka Odyssey and a landmark celebration of our shared voyaging history. Where our ancestors crossed oceans to find this place that they call home. Singers and performances are held after the opening ceremony of the welcoming of the voyagers.
