Pōneke is set to come alive with colour, art, music, theatre, dance, food, and thousands of artists—all at CubaDupa this summer.
After a massive turnout in 2023, with attendees diving ‘through the portal’ into another world, the festival will return again this year with a new offering: Find Your Wild.
This year we’re asking you to be a part of the adventure that is CubaDupa. Whether it be dressing up in costume, joining a parade, following one of our curated pathways, taking part in a wānanga or wandering the wilderness of the Cuba Street precinct, experience Pōneke as you’ve never seen it before.
With every minute of the weekend programmed by our expert team, bring the whole whānau along to CubaDupa to find something wildly creative, for every taste.
