Matariki Events 2021

Matariki, also known as "the rising of the star constellation", is a significant time in the Māori calendar, as it marks the start of the Māori New Year.

New year celebrations provide the opportunity for communities to come together to acknowledge the year gone by and make plans for the year ahead.
