About Shipwrecked

This vibrant boutique music and arts festival unfolds at the serene “Port o Te Ārai,” nestled by our private lake just north of Auckland’s bustling city life. Shipwrecked is a spectacular playground featuring five distinct stages, each resonating with live music that spans from live music, to bass, house, techno, ambient, drum & bass, jungle, funk, dub, reggae, and more. The festival is a visual smorgasbord of art, with stunning lighting, world-class projections, and interactive installations, many crafted from retired oceangoing vessels.

Every aspect of this idyllic hideaway is infused with creativity, passion, and imagination, transporting our fellow pioneers into a unique world where tales of the high seas unfold. The outstanding production combined with the friendly and vibrant community makes Shipwrecked more than just a festival—it’s an unforgettable journey into a realm where music, art, and people come together.
