Hamilton Arts Festival Toi Ora ki Kirikiriroa
Submit an expression of interest to perform or show work at Aotearoa's largest regional arts festival, held in the Hamilton Gardens in February 2027.
Hamilton Arts Festival Toi Ora ki Kirikiriroa is calling for expressions of interest from artists, creatives and companies wanting to be part of the 2027 festival programme.
Running from 19–28 February 2027, the festival transforms the internationally acclaimed Hamilton Gardens into ten magical days and nights of arts and culture. Performances and installations are nestled throughout the Gardens' extraordinary spaces, with select inner-city venues across Kirikiriroa Hamilton also in play.
At its heart, the festival is a celebration of the performing arts — bringing together theatre, music, dance, circus, cabaret, spoken word and immersive experiences that surprise, delight and inspire. Each year a carefully curated mix of local, national and international artists is presented.
Whether your work is bold and contemporary, intimate and immersive, family-focused, site-responsive or joyfully genre-defying, the festival team would love to hear from you.
