A.U.M Festival

Your New Year's Could Look Like This...

You're invited to a new year’s festival adventure with 3 days and nights of summer fun across 4 stages and over 200 music, performing and visual artists.

AUM is known for its great vibes, friendly atmosphere and track record for community safety. Each summer we create a mind-blowing party with fully themed stages and decor, and some of the best quality sound, lights and visuals seen anywhere in New Zealand.

AUM is the place to be over new years if you want to dance all night, take part in fun workshops, watch shows, or to just chill. And it takes place at a stunning location only an hour north of Auckland city near Parakai/Helensville.
