Mahurangi Winter Festival of Lights Needs Your Support to Continue Shining Bright
Help us bring the Mahurangi Winter Festival of Lights to our community
Warkworth, Auckland
The Mahurangi Winter Festival of Lights Incorporated Society is a volunteer-led community organisation responsible for delivering the annual Mahurangi Winter Festival of Lights.
For over 7 years, the Festival has brought our community together with creativity, connection, and unforgettable experiences through this most anticipated event. As operating costs continue to rise, we are facing a significant funding gap that threatens our ability to deliver the vibrant festival everyone knows and loves.
While we are incredibly grateful for the ongoing support of our sponsors, it is no longer enough to sustain the scale and quality our community expects. We are reaching out to you—our community—to help us keep this special event alive. Every contribution, big or small, will go directly towards creating another magical festival that celebrates our people, our place, and our shared spirit. Together, we can ensure the lights continue to shine.
Use of funds
The money raised here will enable us to bring you the much anticipated laser light show and the same level and number of attractions, live music, and all the fun we have brought to the festival in previous years.
