TickeTs for THE International Akaroa Music Festival

Tickets are on sale now for The International Akaroa Music Festival!

Join us as the charming seaside town transforms into an oasis of world-class music — from chamber music and opera to jazz, virtuosic fireworks, and the exuberant spirit of the Roaring Twenties.

Treat yourself to our vibrant concert series, enjoy a glass of wine in the historic Gaiety Hall during intermission, and experience unforgettable performances by celebrated artists including Teddy Tahu Rhodes, Elizabeth Layton, Stephen King, Michael Endres, Anna Goldsworthy, and many more.

Celebrate the next generation of talent in our Powerhouse series, featuring some of New Zealand’s and Australia’s finest young musicians, or get a glimpse behind the scenes in our public masterclasses.

We look forward to welcoming you to Akaroa in 2026!
