Everyone realises they re at the mercy of the pandemic and are doing their best to ensure they get to perform, said Papa, but not knowing whether Auckland will return to Level 1 until Friday, the festival is planning for both scenarios. You know, we ve got shows like Tigilau Ness in the Aotea Square garden just prior to Che Fu and the Krates in the town hall. So, if we don t drop to Level 1 then we have to re-schedule which means a last minute re-scheduling and moving things and, yeah! said Papa. We ve had to basically re-schedule a whole festival in a week, that has taken us the better part of a year. moved shows to different venues which means different configurations and different lots of people to talk to. It s quite the challenge.
