MARTINBOROUGH

With New Year’s Eve swiftly approaching La De Da Festival organisers have announced the set times for both Lullaby Lane Campground on December 30th and La De Da New Years Eve Festival on December 31st.

La De Da is Aotearoa’s newest music festival which sold out in record time just weeks after going on sale. Party‐goers from all over New Zealand lucky enough to score a ticket will make the pilgrimage to Martinborough, just one hour’s drive from central Wellington, for a New Year’s experience like no other.

From midday on New Year’s Eve La De Da ticket holders will experience a stellar line up of some of New Zealand’s finest musical talent across two stages. Roots/dub/rock band Kora has been chosen as the band to ring in 2011 with their high-energy live set.

"After seeing Kora's energetic live performance firsthand, I knew they were the act I had to have to count us down to the start of a new decade” says Festival co-director Josh Mossman. “They have the crowd in the palms of their hands, and bring them to fever pitch with their stage presence and musical performance. They are one of many, but Kora will be the one to watch this year at La De Da."
