Open Mic Night hosted by Ricky Winikerei
Following our successful Open Mic Night last year, we’re thrilled to run this event again as part of our Festival of Singing.
Ricky is known for his own musical prowess, and will be leading a fun evening of music making for you to join, or to simply sit back and enjoy.This is your chance to sing or perform in the Town Hall – backed by Ricky on guitar, a backing track, or accompany yourself either on the piano or guitar.
This supportive fun event is for all ages, and we’re looking forward to Waipā’s hidden talents coming out to shine.

We are thrilled to have Adelaide-based choir Lumina join our Festival.
Lumina specialises in discovering and performing music that is rarely heard. Ranging from medieval gems to masterpieces of the Renaissance and later, Lumina has also established a niche nurturing Australian composers, including performing dozens of world premieres.
This performance precedes Hamilton Civic Choir's performance, so make an afternoon and evening of it and see both!
