Turn down the lights and turn up the glow — After Dark is back, and this year we’re going full neon / UV.
Step into a world where everything shines brighter after hours. Dress bold, glow loud, and get ready for a night of colour, movement, and electric energy at one of Dunedin’s most iconic parties.
Our 360° DJ stage will be pulsing all night, surrounded by immersive lighting and UV effects designed to keep the dance floor alive from start to finish. When you need a breather, slip away to our Night Sky Live planetarium show, where cosmic visuals and chill vibes offer the perfect reset before diving back in.
Fuel your night at the cocktail bar with glowing concoctions available for purchase, then get painted up at our neon face-painting station or gather your crew for group portrait painting under UV lights — the ultimate keepsake from the night.
Get hands-on at our neon beaded bracelet-making tables, craft something bright, and trade with friends as the night unfolds.
When hunger hits, refuel with a selection of food trucks serving up crowd favourites, perfect for keeping your energy high between dance-floor sessions.
Don’t miss out on tickets to one of our iconic After Dark events — these nights sell fast.
