World of Cultures – FINAL DAYS
Our region's vibrant cultures are celebrated this month with World of Cultures (18 March - 3 April).
This festival offers free activities online and in-person across Tāmaki Makaurau.
With easy long-distance international travel still a way off, you can still immerse yourself in Pacific weaving, admire hand-drawn Indonesian batik fabrics, join a Bollywood dance class and watch live cultural performances.
Although this year's festival is smaller due to COVID-19 restrictions, World of Cultures is a great opportunity to learn, dance, eat and explore everything that makes Auckland a unique and incredible place to live.
