Be tempted! A TASTE OF
MATARANGI awaits you on the
9th of April 2016. This will be the
festival’s fourth successful year
celebrating fabulous food, wine
and music by the beach.
Headlining the entertainment is
Five O’Clock Shadow, a popular
cover band from Bay of Plenty.
“The crowd enjoyed them so
much in 2013,” said organiser
Bronwyn Ririnui, “that we have
invited them back. They can really
get folks up and dancing!”
Powered acoustic guitar and
drum duo Pow Wow from Mount
Maunganui bring a fresh, dynamic
approach to popular music. Josh
Pow (vocals/guitar) and Nick
Ririnui (drums/vocals) revamp
known tunes and remix live, giving a whole new vibe and sound.
Singer songwriter Asch-Rose is a captivating singer, performing with an
unaffected purity. She draws on influences from folk, country and blues
legends such as Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, Eric Clapton, Johnny Cash and
Neil Young. She is winning performance awards, and she will win your
heart as well. Asch-Rose’s recording “The Bootleg Sessions”, a handful
of raw acoustic originals, will be available at the performance.
Cheer your favorite local chefs in the cooking competition tents.
Stall holders will offer gourmet foods with a local flair. Just for starters,
“enjoy scallops, French cheeses and wines”, says Bronwyn, who
mentions that food vendor stalls will fill up as the day nears. “We know
that Lions Coromandel will be doing mussel fritters, and they kindly make
a donation from their stall towards the festival charity”.
Expect an intriguing collection of craft vendors, a Kids Zone with bouncy
houses, student performers Troupe Waihi, a helicopter simulator, a charity
auction, and other fun family activities.
Each year, A Taste of Matarangi festival strives to give back to charitable
causes that benefits the community. For the 2016 event the organisers
will once again be supporting the Westpac Rescue Helicopter service and
Kuaotunu Land Search & Rescue (KSAR).
