After a sold out first edition in 2015 it returns for 3 day in February 2018 to the outdoor paradise with a host of local and international acts. A limited number of spot available for this event which showcases the growing number of New Zealand Sound systems from small to large and with a plethora of musical options for classic reggae sound lovers.
