Napier Art Deco Festival
The Napier Art Deco Festival is one of New Zealand’s largest and most iconic events. This unique festival is recognised nationally and internationally as a bucket list event, attracting 40,000+ participants from all over New Zealand and around the world.
New Zealand’s Art Deco capital, Napier, celebrates its annual festival in February with more than 200 events, including entertainment experiences, outdoor concerts, vintage car parades, fashions shows, dining experiences, great Gatsby picnics and so much more.
The whole region steps back in time to experience what life was like between 1920 and 1940 as part of the Napier Art Deco Festival. The tens of thousands of people revelling in the 1930s atmosphere gives the sensation that you have travelled back in time to an era of glitz and glamour!
The 2025 festival runs 13-16 February.
