CubaDupa is a festival of colour, art, music, theatre, dance, food, and thousands of artists. We’re excited to be back for 2025 — March 29-30!
As a fitting ode to the end of summer, CubaDupa is all about ‘Finding Your Wild’ as familiar city streets transformed into a vibrant concrete jungle. Every corner of the site was brimming with artistic wonder: a world of art and culture lurking right here in Pōneke, just beneath the surface.
We look to showcase the most exciting and innovative art made here in Aotearoa New Zealand. If you are a vendor, we have now opened registrations. Apply here.
