The Little Giant Children's Festival

ONEONESIX is proud to launch our first-ever festival dedicated entirely to children and their whānau — a celebration of live performance made for young audiences in Te Tai Tokerau. This is a pilot festival which we hope to develop and build over the years to come. This year we’ll be curating a range of high quality accessible and original performance and story based activities for children at ONEONESIX, The Quarry Gardens, Forum North and Whangārei Central Library.

ONEONESIX is a community-operated performance space in the heart of Whangārei. We invite and celebrate contemporary NZ performance, music, art and community activity that is relevant to the people of Te Tai Tokerau.

ONEONESIX is committed to providing a place for the performing arts culture in Whangārei to flourish. A space where community and professional arts practice come together to celebrate, challenge, tell stories and start conversations.
