That

ceremony service event to open the Matariki Festival at Pukekōiwiriki Paa on 7 June 2025.
Horopaki
Context
6. In
2016, Auckland Council embarked on a new vision for the Matariki Festival,
developing a hosting partnership with mana whenua who whakapapa (genealogical
ties) to Tāmaki Makaurau. Each year, the iwi
manaaki (host iwi) gives Aucklanders a chance
to learn more about the stories, history and landscape of mana whenua and the
city we live in.
7. In
previous years the Matariki Festival has commenced with a dawn service led by
Iwi.
8. For
many across Aotearoa, dawn services are a way to connect those who have gone
beyond the veil and those of us who are here. It is a connection to our
communities to experience a feeling.
9. The
event supported community outreach and increased the visibility of Māori
outcomes.
10. In
2024, Ngaati Tamaoho were announced as the iwi manaaki
for Matariki Festival for the next three years.

proposed to be held as a public event on 7 June 2025 at Pukekōiwiriki Paa.

local community engagement, foster strong existing hononga (connection) with
Iwi and promote and nurture mātauranga Māori to diverse audiences.
