WOMAD (World Of Music and Dance) Taranaki, 2025
May 30, 2025
WOMAD (World Of Music And Dance) Aotearoa, which has been held in New Plymouth’s beautiful Brooklands Park since 2003, has been running for 22 years. The original WOMAD festival, co-founded by Peter Gabriel, took place in Shepton Mallet, UK in 1982.
Once again my daughter Emily and I made the pilgrimage to the New Plymouth (Ngāmotu), along with thousands of other whanau for three days of World music, kai and culture. And to take a few photos, too.
Porirua Rocks Festival

Who knew mixing Rock music, Wrestling, Beer and Burgers would be a perfect mix. Yeah, course it was. Bands included Coridian, Claemus, Volts, East York and a host of wrestling done WWF style.
