ARTIST APPLICATION FORM

Thanks for taking the time to express interest in being part of the Hamilton Arts Festival Toi Ora ki Kirikiriroa 2025!

Attracting in excess of 45,000 people each year, the Hamilton Arts Festival Toi Ora ki Kirikiriroa has been Waikato's premier annual arts event for over 25 years. Using predominantly the unique performance platform of the international award winning Hamilton Gardens (plus key venues in the Hamilton City CBD), HAFTOKK is a truly magical experience for artists and audience alike.

Our next festival is scheduled for 21 Feb to 2 March 2025 and we couldn’t be more excited to hear from you.

Submissions will be open until 28th July. We will be reviewing all applications in due course and will endeavour to get back to you at earliest convenience.
