EDM icons Shapeshifter will be on stage at Whangamatā's Beach Break on January 5.

Hot on the heels of a successful New Year’s Eve return to Coroglen Tavern, two massive Coromandel music events featuring the best from New Zealand and overseas play out on consecutive days next weekend:

Beach Break

● January 5, from noon at Williamson Park, Whangamatā.

After this year’s festival was cancelled due to the weather events in January 2023, Beach Break has been rescheduled and features the line-up that was originally to play at the canned event this year.

It includes Christchurch drum and bass act Shapeshifter, Australian alternative psychedelic rock band Ocean Alley and Dutch-New Zealand band My Baby.
