Aotearoa Outdoor Styles: New Zealand Outdoor Music festivals

We are here to spread the word about Outdoor Music Festivals in Aotearoa, as well as to demonstrate to the world why New Zealand is the place to be for outdoor music festivals.

The combination of New Zealand's breathtaking and diverse landscapes, incredibly talented musicians and our people's strong connection to the land is what we believe makes the Aotearoa Outdoor Style so unique and special.

We want to keep it this way and also would hate to see the commercial side take over like it has in places that aren't New Zealand. The "V Festival" or the "Wireless Festival" just doesn't work for us. We say: "keep it roots, keep it real."

We also know that these things take a lot of planning and aren't always light on your pockets of money either, so we want to make sure you are well informed to get all you can out of your festivals. outdoorstyles.co.nz aims to provide good, unbiased information so you know what you're up for and also to make sure you know what you need to stay alive. Generally the key to staying alive is is shelter, water and food, and sometimes the outdoors doesn't spoon feed you so you need to come prepared.
