Wristbands allowing access to all events during the four-day City Showcase music festival in Napier's CBD are selling fast.
The wristbands include entry to an all-ages launch at the War Memorial Centre on Thursday from 6.30pm, and the Finding the Future concert at Napier's Sound Shell on Sunday, where top New
Zealand acts Soljah, Autozamm, I am Giant and Lisa Crawley will perform alongside up-and-coming artists.
Those with wristbands will even be able to access music-industry workshops, which help educate aspiring musicians.
City Showcase organisers are offering a discount on wristbands for schools and people under 18 by including a $20 special (normal price $30) to schools who organise a group.
Those under 18 can also buy wristbands for $20 by writing a message mentioning the name Tabitha on Facebook at the City Showcase, New Zealand, page.
Over-18s who book through a college or school can buy 10 tickets and get the 11th free.
Cheaper tickets for teens will also be available from the War Memorial Centre on Thursday from 4pm to 6pm, at Kazba from 11am on Saturday and the Sound Shell from 10am on Sunday.
In addition to all discounted prices, wristband holders aged under 18 who brought tickets from the War Memorial or Sound Shell will go into the draw to win a backstage, all-access VIP pass to Finding the Future.
