Get ready Invercargill—Night of the Arts (NoTA) is back and this year, we’re turning up the heat with a Fringe twist! 

This year’s Night of the Arts (NoTA) brings fringe flair to the heart of Invercargill, transforming Don Street, Dee Street, and Connections Arcade into a hub of live performance, hands-on creativity, and unexpected encounters. From 5–9pm on Friday, 15 May, the city centre becomes a canvas — and you’re invited to explore and discover every corner of it.

Expect performance artists, art installations, music groups, new creation stations with Oamaru stone carving, poi spinning, and more.

Plus this year we will have food trucks to keep the bellies full and the kids happy!

This event is for people of all ages.
