With the general election on the horizon, Ōtautahi Christchurch arts organisations are bringing representatives from all political parties together for one big, unmissable kōrero: The Great Big Arts Debate.

Straight talk, sharp questions, and the public in the room. Moderated by Ali Jones and hosted by The Court Theatre.

Let’s hear what our political parties have in store for ‘the capital of cool’* - RNZ, October 2025.
