⭐ HELP KEEP LUCKY STAR ROLLING ⭐

THE FIRE TRUCK NEEDS A NEW LIFE!

The Lucky Star Fire Truck has blown a head gasket. Not repairable. Not patchable. Done.

They’ve had highly qualified mechanical engineers inspect it — and it’s officially beyond repair.

Just THREE DAYS before heading to Splore to set up, their iconic main stage broke down.

With no way they could not have the Fire Truck at Splore being the last Splore, they pulled off a miracle. Because it’s heavy and over-height, they had to hire a specialist Under Lift truck — costing $5,000 to get to Splore and then back to their mothership event The Extravaganza Fair.

They now need to buy a new truck and transfer the entire stage body onto it..

This isn’t just a vehicle. Their livelihood. Their life.

If you’ve experienced Lucky Star at festivals across Aotearoa, you know the magic. The energy. The music. The performers. Lucky Star is the BEATING HEART of every festival they touch, bringing people together and making us feel like ONE.

Behind it all is a crew who work their absolute asses off to make it happen.

NOW THEY NEED US!!!! .

They’ve already paid the $5,000 to transport the Fire Truck to Splore.That cost is done — and it hit hard.

If we can help cover that emergency expense and then put anything extra toward securing a new truck, it would mean everything.

If Lucky Star has ever made you dance, connect, or feel alive — please donate what you can. Big or small, every dollar counts.

Let’s rally together.

THE SHOW MUST GO ON! ⭐
