CubaDupa returns 29–30 March 2025, Pōneke, Wellington
WHERE CREATIVITY AND CELEBRATION COLLIDE
CubaDupa is a Wellington’s free street festival. It’s 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 communal joy as familiar city streets are transformed into a vibrant celebration. Every corner of the Cuba Quarter will transform into a playground. We welcome you to a world of art and culture lurking right here in Pōneke.
We look to showcase the most exciting and innovative art made here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
