Spiegeltent, Aotea Square

The glittering Spiegeltent will be housing a spectacular array of live acts in an equally spectacular setting, right in the heart of Aotea Square, this March.

Originally used as travelling dance halls in Belgium in the late 19th century, spiegeltents (“mirror tent” in Dutch) have now become a highlight at arts festivals the world over. A fan favourite of Festivals past, it’s back for the 2025 Auckland Arts Festival by popular demand.

Come along to revel in the live arts, the dazzling décor, and the range of beverages we have on offer at the Spiegeltent’s very own bar. There’ll be lots to love, all Festival long!
