"I loved being part of this community, solution-focused, inspiring and fun event," Jo Campbell, Golden Bay.
Passing on messages from people who have died and are in spirit is what Kelvin was put on earth to do. However, since the incredible success of Sensing Murder there's been such a great demand from people on this side wanting private readings that it is just not physically possible for him to do them anymore. The best way for Kelvin to be able to put people in touch with the loved ones they've lost - and also help them to understand how the afterlife works - is through his live shows, Soul Food.
When you come to his Soul Food shows, please come with an open heart and an open mind. Kelvin tries to read for as many people as possible but what happens on the night is up to spirit, not Kelvin. If there is a lot of expectation from the audience it can create a barrier. So relax, chill out and enjoy the show, and you never know - it could be your loved ones who show up. And even if they don't, hopefully the evening will open your eyes to the fact those we've lost are now in the white light, and their spirit lives on.

It’s all about our digital natives – the Net Gen and live performance!
The event’s purpose is to support and nurture the creative spirit of “I CAN” with proceeds funding youth arts programmes, tuition and travel assistance.
An evening with Kelvin Cruickshank.
With the outstanding success and popularity of TV2's award winning series 'Sensing Murder', Kelvin has been literally swamped with people wanting to see him.
For this reason, he is continuing his series of exclusive evenings that will help to reach out and touch more people at once. These evenings will simply be Kelvin working with spirit.
Kelvin will read as many people permitted by spirit per session, although we do not guarantee that he can read everyone.
This event is R18
