Siva Afi Festival 2024
An annual pioneering event that brings the talents and skills of wāhine and rangatahi to the fore, through siva afi.
The Siva Afi Festival is in its fifth year, and we’re excited to have welcomed international competitors to our all-female Siva Afi competition, Masters of the Flame comp as well as special guest performers and internationally renowned experts. We also celebrated through our Youth Competition.
Both days of the festival are available to view online.

“I know it’s not easy, but you all showed the true warrior within, that’s what I call courageous.”
