Winter is well on our doorsteps, and while most burrow into their holes with blankets & coco, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t still get out and party like there’s no tomorrow. We’ve had a huge line up of events through our site over the last few weeks, and now with teams in Christchurch, Dunedin, Auckland, and of course Wellington – we’re slowly capturing all the hottest events in the nation.
Just remember if you’re a promoter, or a DJ, or any kind of performer, the best way to get your events noticed is to load them up onto gig websites, including our very own. With thousands of visitors through the site every week, the best way to get your events noticed is through SnapStar. Party people come to us to check out the awesome times they had last week, and look forward to what’s coming up. To get your events included in our Gig Guide hit up south@snapstar.co.nz for South Island, wellington@snapstar.co.nz for any Wellington events, and auckland@snapstar.co.nz for any events in Auckland. As long as you’re there to party, we’ll be there to capture the great time you’re having.
Queen’s Birthday is just around the corner, and many bars in Wellington are jumping on the Sunday Sessions wagon. The Temperance is having a BBQ hosted by the Tui Girls & Hurricanes, before local bands drop some Sunday ‘laxing music to enjoy with their own brew from their on-site brewery. Largerfield’s is also holding a High Tea event from 6pm till dawn breaks. They’ve got some awesome drink specials on, and with complimentary cupcakes – you’d be a fool to miss out.
Just announced today, Shapeshifter have put out the dates for their Winter Tour so head over to our gig guide, or Shapeshifter’s microsite for details. I won’t blab on too much about what’s on this weekend in the capital, you should all know by now our Gig Guide is the place to visit. But must say, I personally am looking forward to State of Mind @ Sandwiches on Friday, and Supermodel @ San Francisco Bathhouse on Saturday!
New Years is always a busy time for us here at SnapStar, we have the huge task of covering the busiest gigs spread all over the country. Not only that, but with so many artists giving everything they’ve got, we need to be on our game to capture every small detail, every beed of sweat, and every ounce of euphoria being spent. We’ve got wind from the organisers of a huge New Years event in the pipeline for the Wellington region. 12,000 party goers will be making their way over the Rimutakas for one night of massive entertainment. With the biggest line up a New Years gig has seen in sometime, it’s great to see something in the region for Wellingtonians – after all, we know how to party! The lids being kept very tight on details for now, but keep your eyes on SnapStar for any exclusive information, and of course you’ll be the first to know!
Fear of missing out (also known as FOMO) – an interesting concept, and one most party people are familiar with. The fear of passing up an opportunity, and missing out on something great. Lucky for those (or unlucky depending on how you look at it) SnapStar is always there to capture the events that you missed out on, so you can pretend you were there partying, and live off the vibe knowing everyone else had a great time. But then again, being there is everything, there’s only so much reliving we can aid! I’d encourage everyone to get out there, kick FOMO in the ass, and throw your hands in the air…. even wave them? Wave them like you just don’t care!
