CubaDupa Street FestivalBorders Opening For Australian & New Zealand Acts
After being forced to play their own backyards over a year, Australian and New Zealand acts can now journey across the Tasman Sea to play.
Both governments lift border restrictions April 19. Not having to be in two-week quarantine in a hotel will save a six-piece indie band NZ$18,000 ($12,657) – something most would not be able to recoup from touring.
Promoters and venues agree that after enthusiastically supporting local acts only, an element of fatigue is creeping in.
“At this point, audiences do want some variety,” Live Nation NZ managing director Mark Kneebone told Stuff. “And while New Zealand acts will continue to perform and do really well, the chance to bring over Australian acts and bands is great for the industry.”
