THE HURRICANE PARTY

JB3+3

This hard-grooving organ trio from Pōneke/Wellington is getting a 100% boost for the Hurricane Party! Packing the stage with guest artists, JB3+3 will deliver a set of unforgettable groove in the finest funk & soul jazz tradition. The one and only musical genius, Jake Baxendale, is joined by marvellous Dan Hayles and unstoppable Riki Gooch to form the core of the ensemble, with exciting appearances from special guests to ensure an incredible set to get the audience going

BOOGIE NIGHTS

Aotearoa’s premier disco tribute band is back — this time with a brand-new show, Boogie Nights!

After playing to packed crowds across the motū with their acclaimed Earth, Wind & Fire
tribute show — including sold-out performances at the Wellington Jazz Festival — this
powerhouse 11-piece band returns to light up the stage once again at the Hurricane party.

From Earth, Wind & Fire to Donna Summer, ABBA, Sister Sledge, the Bee Gees, and
more, Boogie Nights will transport you straight back to the glittering days of disco.
Expect soaring vocals, funky horns, shimmering costumes, and unstoppable grooves
that’ll have you dancing all night long.

Don’t miss the ultimate disco experience — it’s time to get your boogie on!
