Join the hottest brass party of the year, an energetic, vibrant and inclusive atmosphere for everyone. Hot Potato Band’s larger-than-life brass collective is a breath of fresh air with a focus on setting the bar for interactive musical performances.

With three studio albums under their belts, they continue to explore the sonic possibilities of acoustic instrumentation. Finding home in Sydney, Australia, they have spent the past 11 years independently curating and touring shows across Australia, New Zealand, Europe and the Middle East.

They have reinvented the traditional brass band as a modern day dance machine and visual spectacle to complement their strong sense of pride for their fun-loving, organic, and quirky musical nature.

NZ’s iconic electronic trio are back for one night only at the Theatre Royal!

After nearly a decade away, Ruth Carr, Ryan Beehre, and Paul Dodge return to the stage to play the tracks that took them around the globe.

We’re taking out the seats on the flat – this is a dance event. Expect energy. Expect nostalgia. Expect to move.

Minuit has a heart. And it beats loud. Real loud.
