Cross Street Music Festival 2026

Eight years in, Cross Street Music Festival continues to grow, evolve, and push the boundaries of what a street festival can be.
Born from the independent, expressive, and rebellious spirit of K’Road, Cross Street celebrates the unique culture, creativity, and sense of place that make Karangahape Road one of Tāmaki Makaurau’s most iconic creative hubs.
Since 2018, Cross Street has transformed the neighbourhood into a buzzing playground of live music, art, street activations, great food, and unexpected moments, bringing artists, locals, creatives, and music lovers together for an unforgettable day and night.
♾️ INFINITY
Our 2026 theme, INFINITY, celebrates the endless energy, creativity, and connection that flow through Cross Street and Karangahape Road.
A place where past, present, and future collide, K’Road has always been shaped by generations of artists, performers, dreamers, rebels, and communities. Infinity represents the continuous cycle of creativity — ideas becoming expression, strangers becoming friends, and moments becoming memories.
From emerging talent and established Aotearoa artists to visual art, local flavour, and moments you won’t find anywhere else, Cross Street is more than a music festival. It’s a celebration of the streets, stories, and people that make this place home.
Come discover the creative edge of Auckland. Feel the energy, hear the stories, and be part of a festival where music is the heartbeat and everyone is welcome.
Supported by Auckland Live and Auckland Council Events.
