As part of our 30th birthday celebration, we’re thrilled to go back to where the Festival started: alongside WOW! Join World of WearableArt Founder Dame Suzie Moncrieff, Show Director Malia Johnston and award-winning designer Gill Saunders for an entertaining evening of memories.

“WOW rewards the curious, the courageous and those who are passionate enough to stand in the
face of self-doubt and embrace creativity no matter the cost,” says Dame Suzie.

As the closing event of our 30th festival, we look forward to taking a look behind the scenes of the WOW phenomenon – please join us for an entertaining kōrero with Dame Suzie, show director Malia Johnston and 2023 Supreme Award Winner and Whakatū-local Gill Saunders.
