You are all invited to come along to Fiafia Day ’23, Saturday 18 November between 12-4pm in Civic Square.

Fiafia, literally meaning a celebration or get together, are traditionally held as a public social occasion where different people and groups share food and exchange their performances of music and dance. Fiafia Day ’23 will be a day for the Hastings community to come together and celebrate all things Pasifika!

Brought to you by the Hastings District Libraries working alongside local Pasifika communities, Fiafia is being held as an extension of the nine Pasifika language weeks we celebrate throughout the year. Fiafia will complement all of these and bring a touch of Pasifika to Hastings City with cultural performances, activities and information about our Pasifika peoples and nations.

You will enjoy the relaxed family atmosphere with maker spaces available for children, and a range of cultural performances taking place in Civic Sqaure.

Food is an important part of Pasifika culture and there will be a selection of food vendors onsite to tempt your taste buds! Come on down and join together for a fun-filled day for the whole family.
