This Waitangi Day, feel the power of the spoken word from two wāhine toa of Ngā Hinepūkōrero, with poetry that mixes witty and sassy with profound and hard hitting.
Ngā Hinepūkōrero is a group of wāhine Māori who have been winning Grand Slam events across Australasia since 2018. They use the spoken word as a platform to bring attention to important topics and issues in our country, especially those that affect Māori, intertwining waiata and te reo Māori in their work to express their love for whakapapa and culture.
Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki is fully accessible
At Level 2 we will implement social distancing and compulsory tracing measures which will have the effect of restricting numbers to each event. At any higher levels the venue will be closed and the event postponed or cancelled. Decisions will be made and implemented immediately on receiving the news. Festival COVID-19 Information ›
