Ranui Ngarimu - Hosting Te Matatini 2015 - a podcast by RNZ

South Island iwi Ngai Tahu are hosting the 2015 Te Matatini, the annual National Performing Arts competition that attracts tens of thousands of people from around Aotearoa.  Marae, hotels, motels and homes will host up to 2000 performers from 45 groups. Christchurch is still in the re-building phase following the 2011 earthquakes, but chairperson of the Waitaha Cultural Council Trust Ranui Ngarimu says Waitaha Iwi are excited to host the event in just under two weeks' time, as she explains with Justine Murray.
