Haumi ē, Hui ē, Tāiki ē! And it is done!

We have few words left to express the highs and lows of this weekend.

A massive mihi of sincere gratitude to the great many who contributed to the collective energy of our festival. All the authors, chairs, musicians, children, volunteers, poets, event creatives, dogs, venues, artists, our curator Māori, our board, our bookshop, our kaimahi, sponsors and funders.

To the Dunedin community at large, everyone who travelled, everyone who hosted, to everyone who came and to all absent friends, Kā nui te mihi maioha!!
