TO THE FRONT KIRIKIRIROA

9 – 12 July 2025
Zeal Hamilton, Ward Lane

To The Front Kirikiriroa holiday programme is back to Hamilton for the school holidays of July 2025. Born from Girls Rock Camp Aotearoa in 2017 the gender-inclusive music development programme encourages young women, trans, intersex, takatāpui and gender diverse youth to embrace their creativity in a safe space.
 

Running from 9 – 12 July 2025 and hosted at Zeal Hamilton, the holiday programme includes daily instrument practice, where the attendees form ‘bands’ together for the week with the aim to perform a live showcase on the final day. They’ll participate in group workshops such as stage craft, recording audio, music videos, DIY merchandise, zine making and more – while being treated to lunch time performances by exciting artists from the New Zealand music industry.
