  • Elemental 2019 Festival Summary
    Elemental 2019 Festival Summary Credit: Max Burgess - Tūrama Festival Festival Overview The inaugural Elemental festival took place throughout Tāmaki Makaurau in July 2019. Elemental brought the region’s winter story to life for 31 days of dazzling light shows, delicious culinary events, spectacular cultural performances and uplifting entertainment. Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development (ATEED) established E l e m e n t a l to support Auckland’s visitor economy by encouraging visitation to the region during winter, particularly for the accommodation and hospitality sectors. The genesis of the concept was contained within D e s t in a t i o n A K L 2 0 2 5 – the new destination- management focused strategy developed in partnership with industry and released in May last year. A key focus of the strategy – and something industry was keen to see activated – was a more even spread of visitors throughout the region, and throughout the calendar year. Work began to develop a concept which, over time, will grow visitation in a season which is a traditionally quieter time. There is strong belief Auckland has all the ingredients to be a world-class destination for domestic and international visitors. In 2019 Elemental saw a diverse programme of 67 free and ticketed events, from multi-day outdoor lighting events to international culinary offerings, spectacular cultural performances and uplifting entertainment. The programme included events that ATEED invested in and events that joined the festival on a marketing-only basis Elemental also told Auckland’s unique food story through Elemental Feast, a menu- activation programme delivered by Lemongrass Productions, which saw 120 participating eateries deliver a special festival dish inspired by the elements (fire, water, earth and air).
