Wellington Balkan Bash

Looking for some excitement to warm your cockles and chase away those winter blues? Never fear, The Wellington Balkan Bash is here!

Come one come all, this will be a night to remember! We’ve got two banging Balkan bands bringing the heat, $7 pints from Fortune Favours on tap to get the party going, and support from Uncle Silverback to keep your feet moving all night long.

Bear witness for the first time ever, to two of Wellington’s pre-eminent Balkan music ensembles sharing the stage in the spirit of cooperation and community. Like sauerkraut and sausage, they will come together in a beautiful union of complimentary flavours and textures that will light a fire in your soul and under your feet.

‘Niko Ne Zna is a hot and spicy taste of the old countries right here in the capital. Playing original music and music from the gypsy-soaked Balkan States, Niko Ne Zna’s hypnotic melodies and wild infectious rhythms will set even the most rhythmically challenged moving' and grooving!'

‘Bazurka are a motley crew of virtuosic firebrands, coming together to present their fresh take on Balkan gypsy and folk music. Intricate and exotic melodies, driving rhythms and tear jerking ballads are all on the menu as this seven piece powerhouse present some of the best music to come out of Serbia, Macedonia, Romania, Bulgaria and more.’
