Your live singer in Auckland

Auckland spreads across an isthmus between two harbours, and its Indian community lives mainly in Mt Roskill, Papatoetoe, Manukau and Pakuranga. The annual Diwali Festival in the city centre is one of the largest cultural events in the country, and Holi and Navratri are celebrated widely.

Weddings are held in function centres, church halls and wineries to the north. The city’s weather changes quickly, so events always have an indoor option.

A set of Hindi, Gujarati and Punjabi songs suits the community, and the band works with a local organiser to complete the visa and venue arrangements.

The year in Auckland

Diwali and Navratri fall in the spring months. Summer is the wedding season, and winters are mild and wet.

A set list for an Auckland evening

An Auckland community night suits a broad mix: Hindi romance, garba, Punjabi dance hits and an English singalong. Diwali festival stages favour bright, accessible songs for a public audience.

Getting to Auckland and setting up

Flights from India usually connect through Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or a Gulf hub, and the total journey takes about a day. Auckland airport is around 20 kilometres from the centre. Function centres in Manukau and Mt Roskill supply their own sound systems, and the band normally brings only instruments and tracks, then rests for a day before the first performance.

Venues and practicalities in Auckland

Auckland’s Indian weddings use function centres in Manukau, Papatoetoe and Mt Roskill, hotels in the city and near the airport, and wineries to the north at Matakana and on Waiheke Island for smaller ceremonies. The community’s festivals use halls and the large Diwali stage in the city centre.

Auckland’s weather is mild but changeable, and island venues depend on ferry times. Function centres supply sound, while wineries may need equipment brought in. The band arrives early to recover from the long flight from India.
