The Rotorua Summer Seafood Festival is back this summer and will be headlined by Kiwi powerhouse Stan Walker.
The Lakefront festival is run by Te Arawa Fisheries with 2018 signalling its third time.Event manager Larni Hepi said Walker had confirmed this week, just in time for the release of earlybird and VIP tickets that go on sale on Monday.
"Walker will be supported by Auckland band Halo and a number of local acts.
"Local acts are still to be confirmed, as are the celebrity chefs who will be sharing their favourite seafood recipes and the New Zealand wine connoisseur who will be overseeing the New Zealand craft beer and wine tasting."
The region's best seafood vendors will be represented alongside a contingent of food truck owners.
