Summer Sampler

The Summer Sampler will return to the Wellington Waterfront in 2025.

Every weekend in January and February Wellingtonians were treated to some of Pōneke's finest performers, filling the Wellington Waterfront with vibrant delights.

The Summer Sampler is set to return next Summer. Check back on this page in December to learn more.
