With only weeks until voting closes join Tory Whanau, special guests and some local musical talent for a celebration of the Māori Ward.
You'll hear from Cori Gonzalez, Tamatha Paul, Jase Te Patu and the sweet sounds of Mara TK. We'll also have a silent auction from the best Māori artists in Wellington.
Vote to keep protecting the voices of tangata whenua. Vote to keep partnership, progress, people and communities.
Māori wards give tangata whenua a guaranteed seat at the table in local government. A voice in decisions that impact their whenua, whānau and their future. The government is forcing areas with Māori wards to run referendum on whether to keep these going going forward.
These referendums are a direct threat to tino rangatiratanga. We need to keep Māori Wards, and to vote Tory Whanau #1.
Cash bar, entertainment and nibbles provided. Speeches start at 6.15pm followed by musical entertainment and celebrations.
