The Festival

The Festival on TV3 goes behind the scenes of our biggest and most vibrant cultural festivals. We see the people, the planning and the preparation involved in these events. The series embraces and celebrates cultural diversity, one of NZ on Air's primary functions under the Broadcasting Act.

Over 10 episodes viewers will experience special cultural events such as the Wellington Diwali Festival of Lights, the Auckland Filipino community's Halo Halo Festival, Korea Day in Christchurch and the Waitakere Indian Association's celebration of one of the most recognised festivals in the world, the Hindu Holi Festival. It's an explosion of colour!
