Experience an award-winning cultural extravaganza at Te Pā Tū, winners of the Tourism Excellence and Visitor Experience Awards at the New Zealand Tourism Awards 2024. This 3.5-hour evening experience, dictated by the maramataka – the Māori lunar calendar – is a sensory feast of song, drama and divine seasonal kai. Venture through the towering Tawa trees to the forest Pā, where blazing bonfires and a forest-formed amphitheatre set the stage for a lavish three-course Māori fusion feast. As the sun sets, listen to enchanting stories and indulge in the bountiful harvest of Tū Te Rā – a summer celebration like no other.
