the space-weaving
Salmonella Dub will be

The multiple platinum-selling
and award-winning D&B pioneers
are performing across Aotearoa,
delivering what promises to be a phenomenal
two-hour multimedia dance
floor set of the Dub’s classics, alongside
a bag of new tunes from their
forthcoming album Return To Our
Kōwhai.
Joining the band on stage for this
auspicious spring tour are old time
members Conan Wilcox and Tiki
Taane, plus special guests Whirimako
Black and Laughton Kora.
From their very first live appearance
in 1993, to these forthcoming
Aotearoa Spring Tour shows, passion,
creativity, energy, driving bass beats
and pure joy are the signature hallmarks
of Salmonella Dub live.
7 Days Live
The 7 Days Live tour is now officially
an annual tradition. And this year our
comedians will smash out 13 shows
in 13 towns around New Zealand with
(nearly) no fear at all.
Jeremy Corbett, Dai Henwood,
Paul Ego and the team jump in a van
and bring much-needed comedy to
the nation, laughing directly in the
face of Covid-19 (wearing a mask of
course).
Don’t miss this show – part quickfire
stand-up from the country’s best,
on 16 December and part a completely
un-censored and un-edited 7
Days show, it’s exactly the medicine
we need in 2021 (along with the vaccine
of course). Be there to see our
comedy heroes, live!
It’s never too early to start
thinking about Christmas
It’s that time of year again when your
work social committee starts to brainstorm
ideas for your staff Christmas
party. What have we done before?
How can we make it better than last
year?
Sure you could invite everyone
to the conference room for drinks, or
go out for dinner – but that’s all been
done before.
Why not celebrate the festive season
at Baypark this year and indulge
in a delicious Christmas feast created
by our award-winning Executive
Chef? Why not make your party
extra special and visit BayStation and
enquire about Drift-triking or Blokarts?
