19 January 2022 - 0 Comments
The Others Way Festival returns to take over Tāmaki Makaurau's Karangahape Road district for Auckland's most exciting music festival and street party of 2022, with 50 acts scheduled to perform across the event.
Today, the festival adds the beloved Don McGlashan with his band The Others, the ‘melting melodies' of Mild Orange and New Zealand singer/songwriter, Erny Belle. Unfortunately, the previously announced Space Waltz, Golden Awesome and Jay Clarkson are no longer able to perform.
Don McGlashan says:
"The planets have unexpectedly aligned, and we’re on the bill at Tāmaki Makaurau’s “Others Way” Festival next week! We love The Others Way, and we can’t wait to be part of it."
The Others Way 2022 is being held as a one-off midsummer celebration on Auckland's Anniversary Weekend, Saturday, January 29. The festival is kicking off at 4 pm, with brand new stages, venues, and schedules set to take advantage of our glorious hot days and long golden summer evenings.
An additional outdoor stage on Cross Street makes an exciting new precinct with Mercury Theatre and Mercury Plaza Gallery, a unique Hallertau bar on Cross Street and food trucks on Mercury Lane and East Street add to the street-party atmosphere. The festival has also added a new indoor venue in the old Samoan Church on East Street. For the very first time, the festival is moving the Audio Foundation stage outside onto Poynton Terrace which adds a second All-Ages stage alongside the To The Front Stage at the Methodist Church next to the Flying Out store. Percussionist/Beat Maker Lucky Paul will be running his busking set at Pocket Park on Pitt Street early in the day.
Festival spokesperson Matthew Davis reflects:
"As it is a one-off mid-summer event, it is great to be able to take some parts of the festival outside while continuing to feature and work with the amazing music venues of Karangahape Road."
The new outdoor locations increase capacity, but more importantly, it helps widen the connection with Karangahape Road and the prominent places across the area. As well as the new outdoor spaces, the festival is held across iconic venues; Backroom, East St Church, Galatos, Mercury Theatre, Neck of the Woods, Soap, The Studio, Whammy and Wine Cellar.
The Others Way has long been recognised for the vibrancy of the industry and local business, and Jamey Holloway, CEO of The Karangahape Road Business Association, says, "The Others Way is a total calendar highlight for Karangahape Road. Can't wait for the summer edition."
Stay tuned for the official timetable and festival map in the coming days.
