Info

Over 10 days this October, Reimagine invites you to experience the arts in unexpected spaces. This festival is a celebration of creativity that transforms the familiar into something extraordinary.
 
From international sensations to homegrown talent, Reimagine brings together artists from across the globe, Aotearoa, and Taranaki. With a dynamic mix of circus, live music, comedy, theatre and more, the programme offers a rich lineup of performances to surprise, delight and spark conversation for all ages.
 
Reimagine is your invitation to see our region through a new lens. Step into a laneway, a carpark, a theatre, or even a vehicle and discover how art can shift perspectives and bring our shared spaces to life.
 
TAFT proudly acknowledges the support of our festival partners, patrons and sponsors. For over 30 years, your backing has helped us bring outstanding arts experiences to Taranaki.
 
We can’t wait to see you this October as we explore new spaces, new experiences, and celebrate our place in the arts.
