The Line up


Friday 20 January, 6pm-8pm - The Blue Print

We will be kicking off the concert series with a bang. The Blueprint is a 4-piece covers band, hailing from the Wellington region. Armed with a diverse set-list, they will be delivering your favourite classic rock covers.

Saturday 21 January, 6pm-8pm - The Beatgirls

Spend a night with the irresistible BeatGirls as they take you on a musical journey bringing alive the music, fashion and dance of the eras they pay tribute to. A trio of singers with excellent vocals and harmonies, amazing choreography, outrageous costumes and wild wigs! Adrenaline on high heels!

Sunday 22 January, 6pm-8pm - Shaun Preston

Another hot summer favourite is singer, songwriter, pianist and all-round entertainer Shaun Preston, back by popular demand. Performing a diverse range of hits from acts like The Killers, David Bowie, Adele and Elton John, Shaun is a firm favourite for many concert-goers.

Monday 23 January, 6pm-8pm - The Shenanigans

It wouldn’t be a Summer Concert Series without our favourite Irish band The Shenanigans, who never fail to entertain.
The band bring their own unique style with a fun, Celtic twist on each song — be it rock ‘n’ roll, country or Irish classics. Come and experience some summer fun with The Shenanigans — you won’t be disappointed!
