Rolling Hertz is BACK!
And this isn't just any year — it's our 5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY! Half a decade of evolution and phat beats in the Cobb Valley, Tākaka, Aotearoa <3
The love and support for Rolling Hertz has been unreal ! This shows how much people care about this event, and we literally cannot thank you enough ❤️
We think this is a great time to focus on why we all love this event, and put on a party that reflects that. Prepare yourselves for the most out the gate Rolling yet !

Expect the usual phat beats, diverse lineup, world class sound and lighting, fire performances, and immersive art.
This public holiday weekend is the perfect time to celebrate Aotearoa and all the amazing art, music, and community that we have.
Our energy will be focussed on 1 HUGE stage this year. No splits, no distractions, just everyone together for the 5 year anniversary.
We’re throwing everything we’ve got into this. All our creativity, madness, and steeze will go into crafting the ultimate Main Stage experience. Expect something bolder, brighter, and wilder than ever!
Everything you need all in one place, heaps of games, interactive activities, workshops, fire performances, shade and seating, markets, all of it.

And on the final night – Chillout movie sesh! The music winds down, we gather for a communal film and kai, a chance to relax with the homies and recharge before the drive home.
During this downtime expect roaming performers and interactive fun to keep the vibe alive.
To round off the event there will be a special closing set to get the energy pumping before leaving the Cobb valley !
We know times are tough right now — money’s tight, the world’s weird. So we’re making tickets cheaper so that everyone can come. Because Rolling Hertz has never been about dollars, it’s about people.
About all of us having a place to gather, celebrate, and go hard together.
This year’s all about pulling the community together and creating something super special.
Five years deep. One stage. One crew. One community.
See you in the bush. Spread the Word <3
