Ōtautahi! Morning People is back this December, bringing the sunrise sweat to the end of the year with none other than local legend Simon Kong!
A pillar of the dance community since the early ’90s, Simon’s journey began with a school-party stereo takeover and grew into three decades of shaping Aotearoa’s electronic music landscape. From his roots in hip hop and scratch DJing, to the warehouse raves and outdoor parties that defined a generation, Simon has lived and lifted the scene from every angle.
Working behind the scenes on legendary festivals like The Gathering, Canaan Downs Festival and Rhythm & Alps, Simon has helped shape multiple eras of Aotearoa’s party culture. Across the decades he’s shared the booth with an impressive roster of artists including Carl Craig, Carl Cox, Eden Burns, Chaos in the CBD and Frank Booker, and through his event brands Kidnap Inc, City Nights and Summer Club, he’s woven into the fabric of the dance music community.
Expect a high-energy journey through decades of house and disco - a morning rave crafted by someone who’s dedicated his life to the dancefloor.
As always, your early-morning dance comes with free-flow Altezano Brothers coffee, All Good bananas and Karma Drinks.
This is the last party in Ōtautahi for 2025, tickets on sale now – let’s go!
