Mitch Lowe, Founder of Audiology Touring, says bringing a festival of this calibre to New Zealand\u2019s shores is a huge milestone for the nation\u2019s music industry. \u201cSecuring the rights to Ultra Music Festival for such an iconic venue in Wellington is a dream come true. After 17 years of delivering hundreds of shows across Aotearoa, Audiology Touring sees this partnership as the pinnacle of our journey.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIn April, the city will be transformed into an international celebration that puts our capital on the world festival map. People travel far and wide to attend Ultra and we\u2019re excited to show international visitors what the country has to offer, all whilst giving our prized locals something to be proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n
The multi-year agreement reflects the potential for growth and long-term commitment from Ultra Worldwide, Audiology Touring and WellingtonNZ. The inaugural festival is also supported by the government\u2019s new Events Attraction Fund, aimed at securing large-scale international events in New Zealand.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wellington mayor, Andrew Little, says this is great news for the city. \u201cHaving an event on the scale and renown as the Ultra Festival in Wellington will be a huge boost for the local economy, injecting new energy into the CBD and drawing thousands of people from around New Zealand and abroad. It\u2019s time to remind people of Wellington\u2019s place as the live entertainment capital of Aotearoa, so it\u2019s exciting to see an event of this size here in Wellington for the next few years.\u201d<\/p>\n
