E ngā mana, e ngā reo, e ngā waka, e ngā maunga, e ngā iwi hurinoa i te ao nei, tēnā koutou katoa.

Tempo Dance Festival has celebrated the transformative power of dance since 2000. Our kaupapa has always been to bridge cultures and communities through the language of dance. We offer a platform for independent dance makers to tell their stories, unleash their creative flow, experiment and innovate.

For the past 24 years Tempo has nurtured projects and programmes that have made dance experiences accessible to all. Now, with Tempo's 25th year around the corner, we are inviting dance champions and supporters of Tempo's work to contribute to our fundraising campaign.

Your koha helps us provide resources for independent creatives, make dance accessible to diverse communities, and deliver dance excellence in its many forms.

By supporting our kaupapa, you help sustain workshops, performances, and community focussed programmes that inspire and elevate a love of dance.

Our ask is simple: dance with us towards our 25th year and help amplify our kaupapa by donating today.

Tūrou Hawaiki!
