Wairoa Māori Film Festival thanks the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery for partnering with us to present the KIRIATA MĀORI Showcase. As our flood affected community was not able to present a full Māori Film Festival in 2023, many of the planned films will now be able to screen at the KIRIATA MĀORI Showcase.

FESTIVAL POSTPONED TO 2024

WE HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THE FLOOD AND CYCLONE GABRIELLE

The Wairoa community has been adversely affected by Cyclone Gabrielle, and organisers of the annual Wairoa Māori Film Festival have therefore decided that this year’s event will be postponed to June 2024.
