This year, Mana Whenua have gifted ‘Matariki Puanga’ as the name for current and future years. This year’s activities and events will take place between 3 - 20 July. Like last year, we will have a one-day community wide celebration as part of this programme. Through feedback, hui and wānanga between community, stakeholders, and council, we have looked to truly take this celebration into the community. Our approach is to hold this in different parts of the city each year, with this year’s being held on the 9th of July in Naenae.  In addition, as part of the programme, there will be activities at all of our hubs
