After six days of setting up on site and months spending countless hours of preparation, all artists of this weekend's One Love Festival have arrived in New Zealand ready for another massive music event in Tauranga.
The sold-out event, which is in its fifth year, is held today and tomorrow
and will see 20,000 people flock to the Tauranga Domain for the plethora of international and national acts set to take the stage.
The line-up for the 2019 One Love Festival, which is one of New Zealand's most vibrant and popular summer festivals, includes UB40 featuring Ali Campbell, Astro and Mickey, Ky-Mani Marley, Kolohe Kai, festival favourite Fiji, British legend Maxi Priest, US soul singer LaTasha Lee, Katchafire, House of Shem, L.A.B, Aaradhna, Tomorrow People, General Fiyah, Raging Fiyah, Finn Gruva and more.
Promoter Pato Alvarez said this year's festivalgoers could enjoy, as usual, a big reggae party with "good music and good vibes".
Work had been taking place all week to get the venue set up and Alvarez was looking forward to seeing everybody enjoying themselves, with some changes made to improve the event this year.
