Ahi Kā - Matariki ki Pōneke

Come down to Wellington waterfront and experience our new event, Ahi Kā. Celebrate and learn about the Māori New Year with fire, food, friends and whānau.

See some of the nation's finest Māori performers and storytellers, and experience a beautiful light procession featuring creative talent from regional schools.

Hangi, toasted marshmallows and fire on the water – there's something for everyone at this family-friendly event.

Ahi Kā is a smoke-free event.
