AUM Festival 2026
Auckland's New Year camping festival runs December 30 to January 2 at Leighton's Farm, listed among the drum & bass festivals for the 2026-27 season.
AUM returns to Leighton's Farm at South Head, north-west of Auckland, over the New Year, with the 2026 edition listed as running from 30 December 2026 to 2 January 2027. It appears on Music Festival Wizard's drum & bass festival calendar alongside Northern Bass and Rolling Meadows, the other New Zealand New Year fixtures that dominate the Kiwi bass calendar at that point in the year.
Tourism New Zealand describes AUM as Auckland's largest New Year celebration, spanning three nights across four stages with hundreds of New Zealand and international artists billed. A full lineup had not been published on the pages read at the time of writing, so this entry is filed on the dates and site only; check the festival's own channels for stage-by-stage billing before planning a trip around any particular act.
