ASB Polyfest 2026 | Manukau

🆕 SAVE THE DATES for ASB Polyfest 2026🌺

From 2026, ASB Polyfest will be held across two venues and two separate dates. Pacific Islands stages and Diversity stage will kickstart ASB Polyfest 2026 with speeches and performances from 18 - 21 March. This will be held at the Manukau Sports Bowl.

A few weeks later, the ASB Polyfest Maori Stage will close festivities with Maori Stage performances to be held from 30 March - 2 April, at Due Drop Events Centre in Manukau. 8New Polyfest Trust Chair and Principal of Papakura High School Simon Craggs says this is an exciting phase in the event's history.

"This change signifies a new phase of Polyfest as we enter our second 50 years of the event. It allows for growth across all cultural stages over the coming years and relieves the pressure on the Manukau Sports Bowl venue which has been the home of ASB Polyfest since 1996. This also helps to better align the festival dates with events like Te Matatini."

The ASB Polyfest events team is getting ready to open school and stalls registrations so watch this space. More info to come🌺
