FIND YOUR KAPA HAKA WHĀNAU IN VICTORIA

Have you been thinking about joining kapa haka?

Whether you’re new to kapa haka, returning after some time away, or looking for a rōpū to call home, now is a great time to get involved.

Victoria is fortunate to have a number of active kapa haka groups, each offering a welcoming environment to learn, grow, and connect through Māori performing arts.

Our Victorian rōpū include:

🟠 Te Atawhai Pūmanawa
💚 Te Whare Haka o Nārama
⚫ Te Hononga o Ngā Iwi (T’HONI Inc.)
🔵 Ngā Mātai Pūrua
🔴 Ngā Uri Whaioranga 🟣 Te Hono I Ngā Mātai Pūrua

Many of these rōpū also offer tamariki and rangatahi kapa haka, youth development programmes, and opportunities for the next generation to learn te reo Māori, tikanga, waiata, and haka in a fun, supportive environment. If you have children or teenagers who are interested, we encourage you to check out the programmes available with each group.

Kapa haka is about more than performing—it’s about building confidence, strengthening our culture, making lifelong connections, and creating a sense of belonging.

No matter your age or experience, there’s a place for you.

📩 Get in touch with Māori Cultural Arts Victoria, or reach out directly to one of the rōpū above, to find the group that’s right for you.

Our kapa haka community is growing, and we’d love to see you become part of it.

Nau mai, haere mai.

E te whānau, have a look at Te Wero ki Poipiripi 2026. It’s a solid kaupapa bringing everyone together through sport, culture, and good vibes. Touch, netball, basketball — heaps of grades for tamariki and whānau, whether you’re competitive or just keen for a fun day out.

If your whānau enjoys getting involved, connecting with others, or just being part of something positive, this is worth checking out.
