Cross St Music Festival

Set in the heart of Auckland’s K’ Road laneway, Cross Street Music Festival is a vibrant, community-focused music event showcasing the best of Kiwi indie, hip-hop, and experimental artists. R18 and sustainability-first, it brings Street Stage vibes with art activations under the theme “Out of This World.”

Cross Street Music Festival (est. 2018) transforms Cross Street—just off Karangahape Road—into an urban laneway festival, celebrating Aotearoa’s rich musical and cultural identity. As a kaupapa Māori-aligned, zero-waste event, CS Fest brings together established acts and emerging artists in a raw, bold block‑party atmosphere.
