At the Sudima Hotel in Rotorua, the nightly Maori Concert is an event not to be missed.

First two warriors perform a formal Powhiri (welcome).

Then you will savour a superb feast – an array of genuine Hangi (traditional Maori) dishes, all cooked underground with geothermal steam.

The Hangi feast is complemented by mouth-watering buffet selections of eastern and western cuisine and divine desserts including the very ‘Kiwi’ Pavlova.

As you dine, be entertained by Te Roopu Manaia – the high-energy, award-winning Maori Culture group.

Finally, be thrilled by the famous war cry, the Haka.

See the skillful Poi dances, enjoy traditional and contemporary Maori songs and hear the rich tapestry of Maori legends in this 2 hour-plus event.

You’ll even have the opportunity to perform Maori dances and songs with the group.
