Highlife New Years Eve - Waiheke Island
About this Event
Highlife NYE Returns for 2026!
Join us this New Year’s Eve at the stunning Wild Estate Vineyard, nestled in the heart of Waiheke Island’s picturesque Onetangi Valley.
This year’s celebration unfolds across Wild’s architecturally designed venue, sprawling vineyards, and lush green grounds, transforming the entire property into a spectacular NYE festival destination.
Highlife NYE delivers a world-class lineup of international and local dance music acts alongside an Ibiza-inspired production featuring lavish décor, premium lounge settings, spectacular lighting, dancers, performers, and immersive entertainment throughout the venue.
Expect an elevated festival experience with an international atmosphere, set against one of New Zealand’s most beautiful locations.
For those returning to Auckland city after the event, Fullers will be enhancing its ferry services. Special sailings will depart Waiheke Island at 12:45am, 1:15am, 1:45am, and 2:15am, giving guests greater flexibility at the end of the night.
After an unforgettable Highlife NYE 2025, 2026 promises to be even better.
More exciting announcements are coming in the months ahead.
