Manawatu International Jazz & Blues Festival
 
Find More Cultural Events and Festivals In New Zealand...


When:  Annually late May - Start June (2012 - TBA)

Where:  Palmerston North & Feilding, Manawatu (In the North Island), New Zealand


The Manawatu International Jazz and Blues Festival is the second oldest jazz festival in New Zealand. More than 30 years the festival ran over Queens Birthday weekend but, through popularity and demand it was decided to expand to the six day long festival we now enjoy.

It's a week long event that everyone can get involved in, whether you're a seasoned jazz enthusiast, just beginning to learn what it's all about, or a complete stranger to these vibrant styles of music. We are very pleased with the festival line-up for this year.

A wide range of artists have been contacted to appear at this week-long event.




IMPORTANT:
Please note that the details of the event are subject to change. We strongly recommended that you check with the organizers before making any travel arrangements.

New Zealand - background and overview:

The Polynesian Maori reached New Zealand in about A.D. 800. In 1840, their chieftains entered into a compact with Britain, the Treaty of Waitangi, in which they ceded sovereignty to Queen Victoria while retaining territorial rights. In that same year, the British began the first organized colonial settlement. A series of land wars between 1843 and 1872 ended with the defeat of the native peoples. The British colony of New Zealand became an independent dominion in 1907 and supported the UK militarily in both World Wars. New Zealand's full participation in a number of defense alliances lapsed by the 1980s. In recent years, the government has sought to address longstanding Maori grievances.
