SUMMARY:No Exit Band
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Jack Dusty’s Ale House\nNo Exit is a dynamic 4-piece live classic rock band spear-headed by Neil Pascoe (Thames) on guitar & lead vocals\, Mike Lynch (Huntly) on keyboard & vocals\, and complemented by the rhythm section of Greg Allen (Huntly) on bass/vocals and Bevan Carlyon (Papamoa) on drums. \nNo Exit was originally a 3-piece back in the 80s\, and 2 original members\, Neil and Bevan\, are back in this revamp. However\, Neil has also gigged extensively with Mike and Greg in the former Rocky Rhodes band\, and this line-up is unapologetically geared to pub rock! \nAll have years of experience in leading Waikato live bands and will be performing Kiwi & classic rock hits that everyone knows and appreciates. \nCheck out the website for their latest gigs and also music selection. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Mums & Teen Daughters Art Session
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Stacey Moore Artist\nCome along with your teenage daughter and spend some time together doing something a little different. \nThis is a relaxed abstract painting session where you can switch off\, have a chat\, get creative and just enjoy being together. You don’t need to be “arty” or have any painting experience – you’ll learn some simple techniques to encourage you to play with colour\, shapes and texture to create your own beautiful piece of art. \nIt’s also a lovely chance for your daughter to meet and connect with other teens in a relaxed\, creative environment. Sometimes it’s easier to chat and make new connections when you’re doing something together\, without the pressure of having to make conversation. This session is not about getting it “right” or creating a perfect painting. It’s about having fun\, trying something new\, connecting and enjoying some quality time together. \nCome along to relax\, have a laugh\, meet some new people and create something you can both take home. \nPlease note\, these sessions are intended for mothers and daughters (13+) to attend together. Please purchase the number of tickets per person attending. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:New Moon Sound Bath
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Ruth Holden | The Sound Temple\nWelcome to The Sound Temple! Come and unplug from the world in nature and receive\, be nurtured and feel connected. \nThis is a two hour sacred fire ceremony and sound bath with cacao. These circles are held in the Sound Temple a beautiful belle tent and on the land surrounding\, we gather round the fire for a powerful intention setting circle and connection and prepare the participants for a deep sound journey.  Each event is individually curated\, making best use of the opportunity to work intentionally in flow with the planetary alignments and realize the incredible potential that comes with the various phases of the moon. \nDuring the fire ceremony we enjoy a high quality locally sourced cacao\, Essence cacao is a sacred elixir from Samoa that enriches the experience by aiding in expanding the heart chakra to create space for expansion and vulnerability. This medicine can help you journey into states of higher awareness and connect you to your inner desires. \nThe Sound Bath: after the cacao we step into the Sound Temple and settle in for a deeply nurturing and nourishing sound bath. This can consist of any of the following:  tuning forks\, essential oils\, medicine drum\, crystal bowls\, chimes\, shakers\, crystals and harp. Reiki may also be included. \nThe benefits of Sound Baths: \n\nDeep Relaxation & Stress Relief: Sound baths calm the nervous system\, lower heart rate\, and reduce cortisol (stress hormone) levels.\nImproved Sleep: The low-frequency sounds can help improve sleep quality and reduce insomnia.\nMental Clarity & Focus: They can quiet racing thoughts\, improve focus\, and aid in shifting from chaotic to calmer mental states.\nPhysical Healing: Participants often report reduced physical discomfort\, reduced inflammation\, and better circulation.\nEmotional Release: Sound vibrations can help process emotions and offer relief from anxiety or depression.\n\nAfter the sound bath the circle is closed and our guests have the opportunity to drift off home or to stay and share. Those who stay will be invited to journal\, chat and have a sleepy tea together to unpack the experience. \nThe new moon is a time of new beginnings and is perfect for sowing seeds of new intention. \nThe Sound Temple is a no phone zone. Enjoy the connection with others without digital distractions. \nThis is a drug and alcohol free event\, this policy ensures the safety of all guests. Anyone found to be under the influence of substances will be asked to leave and no refund offered. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Wairua | Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Maraea Timutimu and Tania Lewis-Rickard\nWairua\nOpening Thursday 10th September 2026\, 5.30pm\n117 Willow Street\, Tauranga Moana \nWairua brings together the practices of Maraea Timutimu and Tania Lewis-Rickard through an exploration of kōkōwai as a shared medium. \nThis exhibition creates a space for experimentation\, allowing each artist to work with the material in ways that reflect their own practice\, ideas and ways of making. \nKōkōwai becomes the point of connection between two artists\, while allowing difference to remain. Through the addition of wai\, the material shifts\, moves and responds\, creating new possibilities. \nIn Tauranga Moana\, where whenua and wai continually meet\, Wairua explores what can emerge when two practices come together—sharing a material\, while remaining distinctly our own. \nFind out more
