Kerikeri Street Party

Kerikeri Street Party Don't miss the annual Kerikeri Street Party when we close the streets to eat, drink and dance! By 5 pm, we are ready to roll, and the party begins.

After the annual Kerikeri Half Marathon presentation wraps up, our organising volunteers spring into action. The Kerikeri shopping precinct is closed to traffic at each vehicle entrance to the east, west and south. Now our musicians and foodies start setting up their stalls and music equipment at carefully organised locations the length of Kerikeri main street. Lighting is erected, and other public facilities delivered and moved into place.

Woohoo!🎉Plan B was a roaring success thanks to all of you that came and partied at The Packhouse!

We would like to extend a HUGE thanks to Judy and Warrick and the team at The Old Packhouse Kerikeri. The team at Jacman Entertainment do a lot of events there and we love working with them. They really are legends 🥰

Thankyou to Barfoot & Thompson Kerikeri and Bay of Islands - Whangaroa Community Board for their continued support of the event at the alternative site. This support made it all possible.

Shout out to Kerikeri District Business Association, Halvo Signs, Rocksalt Restaurant & Bar and Clarkes Buses for their contributions to volunteers, signage and free shuttles.

Special mention to Kerikeri Community Patrol who volunteered to come and support, be our extra eyes and ears to keep you all safe alongside the security team Kia Tupato.

And to the bands, crew and vendors who were all fantastic and made it a great event, well done all!

We would love to hear your thoughts on the future of the Street Party. Do we go back to Kerikeri CBD (more unique, special event...but more costly so need to get more sponsors and charge a small entry fee) or move it permanently to the Packhouse (less costs, more space, maybe more family friendly?)

There are pros and cons with both options....what do YOU want to see Kerikeri? Let us know 🤩

Big ups to the powers that be...we have a liquor license for Plan B!

We were all pretty devastated we couldn't make the party work in the street this year...boring old funding cuts...its affecting so many community events like ours that can't afford the increased costs.

Thanks to the hard work of the team at Jacman Entertainment and The Old Packhouse Kerikeri we have this fantastic alternative that is now fully licensed! Massive thanks to Jackie and Judy for making it happen. We also have to give huge thanks to Barfoot & Thompson Kerikeri who are getting in behind the party and the Bay of Islands - Whangaroa Community Board for reallocation of funds towards our security and infrastructure costs.

The event will be FREE ENTRY, we have cracking music across 2 zones, multiple food vendors and 2 bars serving a mix of great Northland wines and craft beer as well as spirits / RTDs.

It all kicks off from 5pm on Saturday and we are an all-weather venue with plenty of indoor and outdoor space.

Please read our event info for all the transport options.
Tell your friends and see you there! 😁
