BAND TOGETHER – a gift to the people of Canterbury in the wake of the earthquake – was staged at Hagley Park on Saturday 23 October 2010.

Kiwi music stars including Anika Moa, Bic Runga, Che Fu, Dane Rumble, Dave Dobbyn, J Williams, King Kapisi, Nathan King, Dame Malvina Major, Julia Deans, Ray Columbus and Dinah Lee were joined in the lineup by supergroups including Dukes, Evermore, The Exponents, The Feelers, Minuit, Midnight Youth and Opshop. All gave their time and talent free to entertain Cantabrians.

The massive event began at 11am and run through to 8pm and was broadcast on television and radio throughout. The event was made possibly only through the generosity of the artists banding together with New Zealand business. Any money leftover from sponsorship will be paid into the Zealand Red Cross Canterbury Earthquake Appeal.
