Choirs Aotearoa New Zealand

Do you love to sing? Want to learn to sing in harmony? Ready to take your voice to the next level?

Come together with Choirs Aotearoa New Zealand in Aotea Square to share in the joy of collective singing and let your voice soar for the opening night of Te Ahurei Toi o Tāmaki Auckland Arts Festival 2024. Rehearsals across the city in a location close to you the week prior will ensure that your voice is primed, and you are ready to be part of the largest choir in Auckland, singing a selection of iconic waiata from Aotearoa.

Anyone can join in – no previous singing experience is needed. Have fun, meet new people, connect with outstanding musical leaders, while creating history in the city centre of Tāmaki Makaurau. 

Nau mai, haere mai, waiata mai!
