PROWL FEST 2026

Presented by Prowl Productions x Proud Centres x Raynham Park

Rise. Swerve. Prowl.

This Pride, Auckland transforms into a queer, camp cabaret playground as Prowl Productions unleashes Aotearoa’s first PROWL Festival, a celebration of femme power, street dance, and unapologetic expression, where every move hits with musical flair and theatrical energy.

The festival erupts at Te Oro on 11 Feb with a free open rehearsal of our award winning show, 'PROWL', come witness magic in motion. On 13 Feb, two free waacking workshops at Te Oro invite dancers of all levels to waack, spin, and swerve to infectious beats, fully embracing the camp cabaret spirit.

On 14 Feb, the street dance battle ignites at Raynham Park, packed with fierce throwdowns, sickening style, musical influences, and show-stopping guest performances. Bring your sass, bring your sparkle; battle, slay, and twirl.

Two more free waacking workshops hit Ellen Melville Centre on 17 Feb, followed by a community jam to move, connect, and unleash queer fire, keeping the camp cabaret energy alive.

The grand finale? Two performances of our award-winning show PROWL at Raynham Park on 27–28 Feb, each exploding into a celebratory afterparty with iconic guest performances, glittering theatrics, and femme-powered energy.

This year, PROWL, PROTECT & STAND, claim your space, werk your moves, and swerve in queer, femme-powered camp cabaret style.

Swerve. Serve. Slay. Prowl.
