Famous Matariki Pride Panel

Join broadcaster, former MP and proud takatāpui storyteller Tamati Coffey as he plays host for an evening of laughs, kōrero and connection. Think Graham Norton with a Matariki twist. Tamati will guide a lively conversation with drag superstar Tess Tickle, filmmaker and lesbian mum Nicola Smith, and young tāne mau mataora Whatonga Ua-Mauru Anson. Together they’ll share stories of identity, whānau, pride, belonging and the journeys that have shaped who they are today.
