IT'S COMING — our full 2025 Festival lineup is revealed on Wed 13 Nov. Tickets on sale from 10.00am.

The Civic

Built in 1929, the glamorous stage of The Civic has played host to some of the world’s biggest artists and most scintillating scandals. Now, in a unique opportunity, it’s your turn to step onto the stage at The Civic Club, the Festival’s truly special venue for the best live music, comedy, cabaret and conversations this summer.

The Civic was - and is - an outstanding example of the ‘atmospheric cinema’ genre, with a unique soft-top ceiling design that floats above the auditorium, allowing the famed stars and clouds effect that is a recreation of the Southern Hemisphere night sky. Look up at the start of a show and see if you can spot the shooting star!

The Civic is a Category One-classified protected building and is New Zealand’s premier lyric theatre with 2379 seats split across two levels.
