Twisted Frequency Festival 2024 – 2025

This next round of Twisted Frequency Festival is extra special.
We are celebrating a DECADE of underground music, art and culture.
For ten long years now we have been dedicated to bringing you the finest in international and local creativity. In the spirit of reverence and to properly see us into the next exciting chapter we have got something absolutely monumental in store.
We’re committed to bringing you THE most EPIC party in Aotearoa. The format is tried and true:
Music: Four stages running 24/7 that showcase insane diversity, with literally hundreds of acts in a variety of styles. We have a fierce passion for bringing you tunes from right across the genresphere. This is one of the important aspects that has cultivated such an open and vast community.
This time around we are looking into the past and out into the future, bringing back a selection of enormous legacy acts that have shaped the way Twisted sounds as well as a massive list of legendary musicians we have had on our wishlist forever.
Prepare yourselves for our most impressive lineup to date.
Art: Another central element of this event. Hundreds of amazing individuals have brought colour and life to our spaces by Painting, Graffing and Sculpting the party year after year. We are looking forward to leveling up across the board, bringing more creative energy into the fold than ever before.
Mind: Every year we bring speakers and specialists to share their knowledge and experience. Expanding our communities’ worldviews and potential to effect positive change in their own lives and on the planet overall.
Body: Circus and Flow Arts have long had a special place at Twisted, with a raft of talented individuals crafting unique performances and sharing their skills with the wider scene. Workshops in almost every discipline under the moon occur daily at Twisted as well as yoga and other enriching experiences.
Nature: We are so lucky to call the Cobb Valley home – an ancient glacially carved valley on the edge of the glorious Kahurangi national park with a spectacular crystal clean river flowing right through it. Being on this land we share in the rich history of music festivals that have celebrated on this beautiful whenua for generations.
‘Ko au te whenua, ko te whenua, ko au’ – ‘I am the land and the land is me’
We could never have made it this far without every one of the incredible creatures that makes this project tick. You have built this thing with us and we owe you all a great debt of gratitude for everything you have done, be it crewing with us, sharing your creativity, keeping our whānau safe or holding it down on the dancefloor at the front left stack, this event is the result of 3653 days of hard work and passion for the community, from the community.
Without YOU none of this is possible so from the bottom of our hearts…FUCKIN CHURRRR!
Twisted has grown so much over this time. We can’t wait to see the new heights we are set to reach together.
