Show Notes
New Zealand’s first Ocean Festival is hitting Auckland’s waters next year.
Moana Auckland is set to launch on February 24th 2024, lasting a full thirty days as summer comes to an end.
The festival is set to feature the Auckland Boat Show, Z Manu World Champs, the New Zealand Millennium Cup superyacht regatta, and more.
Chris Simpson, Auckland Unlimited’s Head of Major Events, told Mike Hosking that while there are new events, some of these events have been running in isolation for some time.
He said that bundling them together and creating an overarching Moana Auckland brand creates a platform the marine sector can use to promote the industry.
