Gig Starters Aotearoa are hosting a free event on Sunday 20 November at Big Fan with a seminar, a production workshop and an all ages gig!
Kicking off at 2:00pm, we’ll be discussing the need-to-knows of putting on your own all ages gig with a crew of industry professionals, a local recording artist and a production technician.
After the hui will be a workshop at a real-life soundcheck, with the chance to watch and be part of a live production set-up.
And then in celebration of releasing the first Gig Starters Zine at 4pm, it's gig time! We’re lucky to have rising local stars Coast Arcade performing.
There will be an awesome team heading along to share their wisdom about putting on great all ages shows. The Panel or ‘Crew’ as we like to call them for this event are:
