Papamoa-based musician Tiki Taane is gearing up for a Christmas performance at a special night market on Saturday to raise money for the Tauranga Community Foodbank.
The internationally-recognised artist has teamed up with The Little Big Markets organisers Chris and Rachelle Duffy, to raise food and funds for the foodbank.
"We did the same thing last year and it was a huge success so we thought we would do it again," Mrs Duffy said.
"We all had such a great time that even before the night had ended Tiki put his hand up and said he would do it again. It was just a great community evening."
Taane, who is about to jet around the country on a busy summer tour, will be supported by local musicians Regan Perry and Nick Barratt in the family-friendly event. He told the Bay of Plenty Times he was happy to raise money for the foodbank and promote a local event, while having fun at the same time.
