Due to the recent community outbreak of COVID-19 Omicron and the move to a Red Light COVID protection framework across Aotearoa, it is with heavy hearts that we are announcing the cancellation of the February offering of Te Tairāwhiti Arts Festival. Having moved this once already, the further postponement of the event is not viable at this time.
We will continue to plan for our festival event later in 2022 and look forward to bringing the full might of our creative abundance in Tūranga-nui-ā-Kiwa and the great Te Tairāwhiti region. Our sincerest aroha goes out to all our artists, crew, suppliers, ticket holders and community who have backed and believed in us since the beginning.
Get ready for a spectacular spectacle of queer deliciousness! Dazzling lip syncs, sensational singing and - most exciting of all – special guest transformations!
Following sold out shows at Te Tairawhiti Arts Festival 2020, once again Lady Trenyce Bhone and Ms Lady B, joined by Elektra Shock (RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under), will band together to transform your average looking local personalities into the most stunning and outrageous drag artists you’ve seen this side of the Southern Hemisphere! Packed with wild antics and relentless raunch, an evening in the Dragon’s Diva Den is guaranteed to leave you with a smile on your face and a rainbow in your heart.
Everyone is welcome. Love and glitter are always the answer.
