Concert to celebrate Unity and Diversity

Different cultures and groups will be celebrated at the annual Unity and Diversity concerts on Saturday.

The Massey University Students’ Association runs the annual event and shows will be held at The Globe Theatre at 1pm and 7pm.

Massey student life coordinator Kirsty Greenwell says the concert is organised by students for the community and celebrates cultural diversity.

“Unity and Diversity is about appreciating and celebrating the different cultures and interest groups at Massey University.”

Eight groups will be performing in the matinee show, and 14 in the evening.

Tracy Chiridza of the African club says the group will do a presentation and perform a popular dance.  “We want to showcase our culture and life in Africa.”

This is the 17th year the event has been held. Performances include traditional dance and music, skits, and groups such as the Fire Club showing off their talents.
