PĀ HAKA 2026

The countdown begins!

Saturday, 14 November 2026
Takitimu Marae

Now is the time for our marae to begin planning, preparing, and bringing our kaupapa together for this year’s Pā Haka.

Pā Haka is more than performance — it is about whakapapa, identity, unity, and the strength of our people standing together. It is an opportunity for our tamariki, rangatahi, pakeke, and kaumātua to reconnect, learn, and uphold the stories, waiata, haka, and traditions of our marae for the generations to come.

Start gathering your teams, choosing your waiata, preparing your brackets, and building the excitement within your whānau and marae communities. Every practice, every kōrero, and every voice contributes to keeping our culture strong and alive.

Let’s make Pā Haka 2026 a powerful celebration of Wairoatanga, whanaungatanga, and mana Māori.

More details will be released in the coming months — but for now, save the date and get your brackets underway!
