Entertainment - Main Stage Marlborough District Brass Band The Legends Concert. The Marlborough District Brass Band is one of the oldest and most popular Brass bands in New Zealand, forming in the 1880s .The band has been a very successful performing group having performed in Japan, Australia and last year in China at the Shanghai arts festival. A talented Marlborough band to kick things off!
Sweet Mix Kids New Zealand-based DJ/production duo Sweet Mix Kids have played at some of the world’s coolest parties and clubs including Coachella, Wanderlust and Rhythm & Vines. Their DJ sets incorporate electronic drums and samplers and live instruments to mix every genre into flamboyant live performances.
Summer Thieves From humble beginnings in Dunedin’s ‘Scarfieville’, the Summer Thieves have built a large and incredibly loyal fan base. They first entered the studio in 2014 with awardwinning Kiwi artist and producer Tiki Taane who worked with them on their debut album Warped which was released in July 2017. Self-confessed “laid back guys who put on parties”, and who “don’t take ourselves too seriously,” the band comprises of Johnny Ward (drums and vocals), Adam Spencer (bass), Izzy Bones (guitar and keys) and Jake Barton (guitar and lead vocals).
Ardijah A group of well-known artists who formed a band in the 1980s in South Auckland, Ardijah specialise in soul and funk. Ardijah were at their most popular in the late 1980s when they released their first single, Give Me Your Number, followed by Your Love is Blind. The band members include Betty-Anne Monga (vocals) Ryan Captain Fonk Monga (drums, bass and vocals), Ryan Kaipapu Monga (bass, drums, vocals), John Richard Tali (sax, vocals), Michael Hansen (keyboards) and Jesse Monga (vocals, percussion).

Entertainment - Main Stage
Stellar* Legendary Kiwi favourites Stellar* join a superb line-up for the Marlborough Wine and Food Festival. Stellar* first burst onto New Zealand’s music scene 20 years ago, smashing out five radio hits in 18 months - Violent, What You Do (Bastard), Undone, Every Girl, and Part of Me –, with their debut album Mix (1999) reflecting their unique blend of rock and electronica. The band broke up eight years ago, but after some gentle persuasion, Stellar* reformed late 2017. The band still features the same lineup that released their first single in 1998. That line-up is Boh Runga (vocals, guitar), Andrew Maclaren (drums, programming), Kurt Shanks (bass) and Chris van de Geer (guitar).
My Baby This Dutch-New Zealand trio play roots-driven hypnotic dance. It’s a sound informed by gospel and blues that is fused with ancient folk melodies. Added to that is the rawness of 70s funk, African desert blues, Moroccan gnawa, Indian raga and a touch of EDM all played on guitars and drums without using computers or samples. Based in Amsterdam, My Baby have been spreading their psychedelic blues-trance rave to the approval of audiences worldwide since 2012, featuring at renowned festivals such as Glastonbury (UK), Isle of Wight Festival (UK) and Fusion (Germany).

New World Culinary Pavilion The 2019 Marlborough Wine and Food Festival brings more new and exciting changes in the Culinary Pavilion. This year we’re launching the New Zealand Home Chef Cook-Off series, which will see two of the best home cooks in the country go head-to-head with a celebrity chef (sponsored by our food partners). Each party will be given a mystery box of the same local ingredients and challenged to create the best dish they can, on stage, in just 45 minutes. If that’s not enough culinary excitement, we’ll also be holding our fantastic cooking demonstrations throughout the day, with our chefs showing you what culinary creations are possible with the amazing produce we’ve sourced from right here in Marlborough.
