Auckland Arts Festival/Te Ahurei Toi o Tāmaki (AAF) 2021 features everything from dance to theatre, live music to comedy, visual and digital art, talks and debate, community participation projects and more, with a wide-ranging series of free and ticketed shows, installations and exhibitions designed to unify, uplift and inspire.
The Festival has commissioned world premieres of several new works, resuscitated some that were cancelled in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and will provide employment for over 1,000 artists and 150 production and administration staff.
All 2021 activity falls into three strands related to the overarching theme of Aroha: aroha ki ngā kōrero – the respect we hold for our stories; aroha ki te tangata – kindness, compassion and goodwill toward people; and aroha ki te taiao – our love and care for our natural environment – air, land and water.

Kiwi celebrities and local experts explain what makes their home town world-famous in New Zealand, and the things you should see and do when you visit.
Anna Coddington - Raglan
What makes Raglan unique/iconic in New Zealand?
The surfing, though I don t partake, and the scenery and beaches generally. Also the people it s a great community and there are a lot of artists, musicians, creatives and characters.
What s the first place you d recommend to a visitor?
The campground beach. There s a great playground and pump track for kids, you can swim and jump off the bridge (if the tide is high enough, do not attempt if it s not), and there are good fish and chips at the campground shop. You can walk across the bridge into town for a change of scene if you feel like it.
