Te Matatini Announces Ticket Prices for 2025 Festival: Prioritising affordability in light of
challenging times
Te Matatini is proud to announce that ticket prices for the highly anticipated 2025 Te Matatini
Festival will remain unchanged from the 2023 competition, in recognition of the increasing
hardship being experienced by whānau across Aotearoa.
“We understand the challenges many whānau are facing and are committed to ensuring that the cultural significance of kapa haka is accessible to everyone,” Te Matatini chairman Tā Selwyn Parata said.
“If spectators wish to experience all five days of Te Matatini, it will be more cost-effective to
purchase a five-day pass and save up to $50.”
General Admission:
● Seniors / Pāhake (65+ years) single day ticket is $40, and a five-day pass is $150.
● Adults / Pakeke (18-64 years) single day ticket is $50, and a five-day is $200.
● Youth / Taitamariki (6-17 years) single day ticket is $35, and a five-day pass is $150.
● Children / Tātarakihi (0-5 years) are free.
Accommodation is also available at the Bowl of Brooklands campground for tents and
motorhomes. A Camping Bundle includes six nights' accommodation from Monday 24 February to Saturday 1 March 2025, and a five-day pass.
