World on Stage 2025


What an unforgettable night!
World on Stage 2025 was a beautiful celebration of diversity, tradition, and talent – showcased though on-stage performances, cultural displays and community interviews. From lively dances and striking costumes to energetic music and compelling stories — every moment, both on and off stage, highlighted the richness of our cultures and reminded us how beautifully diverse, yet deeply connected we all are.
Our heartfelt thanks to the community groups, performers, cultural stallholders, ethnic community members who have all dedicated their time and expertise for this year’s show, alongside:
- Phil Anstis and Caleb Rayer
- Lyal Brenton
- Our speakers Todd Taiepa, Kaydee Zabelin, Tangi Utikere and Ranjita Sengupta
- The Regent on Broadway, Palmerston North City Council, Ministry for Ethnic Communities, Eastern & Central Community Trust, UCOL, Volunteer Central, Massey University and NZME.
We hope you enjoyed the show! See you all in 2027!
