Marleina Te Kanawa - Raglan Music Festival - Soundsplash Festival - Tangi Event

Raglan's Soundsplash Festival attendees are in for a surprise with unexpected delays

Raglan's much-anticipated music festival, Soundsplash, is drawing in crowds for a lively weekend. However, a twist in the tale has emerged as the event organizers warn of potential delays due to an unexpected tangi event. The festival, known for its vibrant atmosphere and eclectic music lineup, is set to kick off this Friday amidst a clash in traffic caused by the tangi. This clash has added a new layer of anticipation and excitement for festival-goers as they navigate through the logistical challenges.

As thousands of music enthusiasts swarm Raglan for Soundsplash, the local community is also preparing for another significant event. Alongside the festival, a tangi is scheduled for Friday morning to honor the passing of the beloved 'Iconic local kuia,' Marleina Te Kanawa. This dual event scenario has created a unique blend of emotions in the air, combining the energy of the festival with the cultural significance of the tangi. Despite the anticipated traffic congestion, attendees are gearing up for a weekend filled with music, memories, and respect for the local traditions.

In a rare occurrence, the overlap of Soundsplash Festival and the tangi has sparked conversations about the interconnectedness of music and community rituals. The coming together of these events highlights the rich tapestry of cultural experiences found in Raglan, underscoring the town's vibrant spirit and unity. As festival-goers navigate through the logistical challenges, they are reminded of the importance of honoring local traditions and celebrating life in all its forms.
