Mīharo Murihiku Polyfest

Mīharo Murihiku Polyfest is more than a performance event — it’s a vibrant celebration of culture, identity, and the strength of rangatahi taking the stage with pride.

Held at ILT Stadium Southland, the festival brings together music, movement, colour, and a strong sense of whānau and community, creating an atmosphere that feels both uplifting and deeply meaningful. Alongside the main festival programme, the evening showcases add even more to the experience, with the Community Showcase on Tuesday and Rangatahi Toa across Wednesday and Thursday nights, each beginning at 6pm.

With gold coin entry for spectators, it’s an accessible and welcoming event for families, supporters, and the wider community to come together, back young performers, and be part of something powerful, joyful, and proudly local.
