Whangārei Night Lights Festival is an event run by the Northland Burners Arts Collective (an unincorporated not-for-profit group of artists and experience makers).  Our objective is to share immersive experiences with people of all ages and ensure that artists, performers and support staff are fairly remunerated for their effort and contributions.  

This event would not be possible without funding from Whangārei District Creative Communities NZ in 2022 and our 2023 key sponsor Quarry Arts Centre.
