Porirua Rocks

After an explosive debut, New Zealand’s only Rock ‘n’ Wrestling Craft Beer Festival is back at Te Rauparaha Arena – bigger, badder, and better than ever! Filling the void left by Jim Beam Homegrown, Porirua Rocks brings together six epic Kiwi rock bands, electrifying pro-wrestling matches, and ten of Aotearoas finest craft breweries for an adrenaline-fueled day of music, entertainment, and flavors.

The “City of Two Tides” is quickly becoming a hotspot for craft beer enthusiasts, with venues like The Beer Engine, Abandoned Brewery, and the newly opened Kai Tahi enhancing Porirua’s vibrant hospitality scene. Experience it all in one unforgettable festival featuring over 20 food vendors, flash tattoos, exclusive merchandise, and the very best of New Zealand’s rock music and wrestling talent. With decades of event experience behind us and a clear vision for growth ahead, Porirua Rocks 2! is your must-attend festival of the year!
