Reviews of Aum New Years Festival
"Aum has done a great job of capturing the spirit of the the dance music festival. There is a diverse crowd from first timers to dedicated burners and everyone in between. The main stage has a range of genres from psy, DnB and techno. The Kanuka stage plays deep rolling house, hosted by the LoFi crew. The hill stage is also hosted by external crews with various dance genres. And the Hub stage caters for bands, live performances, children's events, and the world famous unicorn gathering, hosted by the fabulous Gwendolyn. There is lots of room for camping with friends and most times you can park next to your tent. The toilets are OKish, they are continually upgrading the facilities so hopefully the toilets continue to improve This isn't the RnV or Northern Bass crowd, there are a lot of older attendees who where in the scene back in the 90s who embody the spirit of PLUR. Definitely recommend if you don't want to hang out with a bunch of drunk kids :D"
"AUM festival is the perfect choice for new years eve and a break away combining the camping experience with a variety of good music and the dance party vibe. There is easy access to food and drink stalls and other boutique stalls selling everything from clothes and sunglasses to crystals and gemstones and a whole load of stuff you're not likely to find at your generic city mall. They have hot showers but the waiting time can be a while. Its promoted as child friendly which it is but theres not that many young ones but those that there are seems to enjoy themselves They don't sell alcohol so its BYO but there is a strict NO glass rule at the event. Basically load up the chilli bin with ice and whatever and your good to go. It Sold out this year so don't leave it until the week before to get tickets if your planning on going."
"This was one of my absolute favorite festivals during my time living in NZ. I’m so happy to have been introduced to this amazing community through my partner who has been attending AUM since its debut year. It was full of great workshops and interactive activities. My favorite was the communal painting board which I spent about half a day at. The NYE night was magical and colorful. The food options were decent. The only downside is the long lines that form for the cold and hot showers. I can’t wait to attend again in the future if I’m ever back in NZ."
"Even though I only went to the small mid year events, you can tell a great deal of care was put in. The performances were all awesome, and the decoration was on point, especially the main stage. I took my friends who had only listened to D&B before this, and they loved the music"
"Probably the best kept secret new years event in New Zealand. It's been getting better each year. They have various zones with different music styles like psytrance or house or live bands. Lots of activities like yoga, stilt, juggling and hula-hoop lessons for kids, great food and a huge camping area."
