Tuesday 16 December 2025 · 2 outlets · 2 reports · updated 
Organisers have announced that the Splore music and arts festival will conclude following its 2026 event at Tāpapakanga Regional Park. The decision follows lower-than-expected ticket sales, making the festival difficult to sustain. The final festival is scheduled for 20-22 February and will feature Röyksopp, Sister Nancy, and Nightmares on Wax.
