Groove Terminator Tickets

Imagine a dance floor, the world’s greatest gospel choir and a DJ set for the ages. That’s History of House in a nutshell. Whether your vibe is disco funk, club classics, rave anthems or millennial electropop, this non-stop ride through three decades of dance music has you covered. Whoever had the brilliant idea to put the vocal power of African gospel singers behind one of Australia’s biggest DJs sure knows how to bring the house down. From the first beat drop to the last, we know you won’t be able to stop dancing — both inside a pulsing Auckland Town Hall and all the way down Queen Street afterwards.

Founded in 2002, Soweto Gospel Choir has sung with the likes of U2, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Celine Dion. Winner of three Grammys including Best Traditional World Music Album, the group is also performing its tribute concert to the music of peace and protest, HOPE, at this year’s Festival. Groove Terminator, aka Simon Lewicki, is a popular Australian DJ and ARIA-nominated electronic music artist. History of House features 16 choir singers and a DJ on stage. Both standing (i.e. dancing) and seated ticket options are available.
