Pile on down to Te-Awarua-o-Porirua Harbour and join us for this free, whānau-friendly celebration featuring Pasifika-flavoured fun, music and food galore – the last stop in the Waka Odyssey tour of the Wellington region.
Explore the Pacific voyaging traditions of great navigators like Kupe and climb on board a waka hourua (traditional
double-hulled sailing canoe), then learn more about celestial navigation and the galaxy in the
amazing pop-up S.M.A.R.T. Trust star dome.
After all your adventures, relax and enjoy free music and entertainment, and take your pick of the great kai on offer from Wellington’s best food trucks.
Later that day, move on to Trust Porirua Park for a own picnic tea and enjoy Porirua’s spectacular Symphony in the Park, featuring Sol3Mio.
Thanks to Porirua City Council.
Pasifika Porirua is a Kupe Dreaming event and part of A Waka Odyssey, a week-long celebration of our place in the Pacific that includes the spectacular Kupe: Festival Opening Night.
