MUSIC FOR MUSIC LOVERS

Music lovers love AUM for its consistently high quality year after year. Expect delicious vibes. Expect to be moved by state-of-the-art sound systems and enchanted by themed stages and decor.
AUM showcases some of the best in house and techno, psychedelic trance, drum & bass, bass music, dub, psychedelic rock, breaks, chill-out, disco and more across four themed stages.
CREATIVITY
AUM is a platform for the music, art and activities we love.
We encourage all kinds of performance, visual art, ideas, interaction and creativity. We support the talented artists of all kinds whom we are privileged to showcase. Each year we offer Kiwi talents prominence on our lineup to champion homegrown talent.
Whether at our Midnight Cabaret or daytime gala shows, creating visual art, or attending fun workshops, the creativity on offer is a wonderful experience for all.
COMMUNITY
Our original, friendly event brings beautiful, like-minded people and tribes together to celebrate as one.
What is important to us? Inclusiveness. Kindness and love. Integrity. Friendship.
