We’re excited to announce the first-ever Ladi6 NYE House Party - a full-energy New Year’s Eve celebration bringing the warmth, chaos, and joy of a real house party to the stage, thanks to Spark & Spotify!On December 31 in Tāmaki Makaurau Ladi6 will bring a brand-new New Year’s Eve celebration to life, a night built for dancing, connection, and pure vibe.Born from the simple idea that if the party you want doesn’t exist, you make it yourself, Ladi6 NYE House Party will turn Whammy, Double Whammy & Public Bar into the lounge everyone wishes they had - big grooves, deep bass, and an atmosphere that feels intimate, electric, and communal all at once. Joining her are some of Aotearoa’s most exciting established and emerging artists. Ladi6 NYE House Party line up: Bailey Wiley Benny Salvador Christoph El Truento DJ Pom DJ Kerb DylanBiscuit Ladi6Lijah Mokomokai Nganeko “I’m thrilled to launch the very first Ladi6 NYE House Party”, shares Ladi6. “It will be a night that celebrates my Aotearoa music community and where it’s headed. It’s a space where established artists stand alongside the next wave of Aotearoa talent, creating something alive, connected, intimate and hopefully unforgettable.”This isn’t just another New Year’s Eve event - it’s the very first Ladi6 house party, and everyone is invited!Alongside the New Year’s Eve celebration, Ladi6 will also return to the road this summer for a run of shows celebrating her acclaimed fifth record Le Vā and the iconic tracks that helped define her extraordinary legacy. These shows offer fans the chance to relive the moments that shaped Le Vā while moving to the back-catalogue that has made Ladi6 one of Aotearoa’s most consistent, genre-bending artists. With headline shows in Mangawhai, Nelson and a one-off event alongside HEDLOK (King Kapisi & Che Fu) at Ōakura’s Butler’s Reef AND a string of festival slots, Ladi and her crew are going to be busy this summer. Following the acclaimed Alofa Tour last year and the Le Vā Album Tour earlier this year Ladi6’s live performances continue to draw glowing reviews. Radio New Zealand described her as “an actual queen - a title she has earned and has the right to wear,” calling her show “an essential gig for the Kiwi summer.” This summer’s dates build on that momentum, delivering renewed energy, new material, and the unmistakable Ladi6 live experience to audiences across the motu.
