Memorable debuts on real-world stages!

Since its launch in 2001, our signature event Rhapsody Rotorua has become New Zealand’s premier youth music festival. Each year, over 800 music enthusiasts from schools across Australia and New Zealand descend on Rotorua for this week-long festival celebrating music and some of the most thrilling adventure activities on offer.

Give your students the most exciting performance travel opportunity in the world! Rhapsody Rotorua will stimulate their musical development through performance, adjudication and professional coaching, whilst immersing them in the adrenaline-fueled activities of the North Island’s adventure capital. Picture your students walking through the enchanting, rolling hills of Hobbiton, build confidence as they perform in front of a live audience and create friendships, skills and memories to last a lifetime.
