Tauranga Zinefest is a free, highly visual, community event celebrating zine culture — pronounced “zeen”, zines are small, short-run, self-published, (maga)zines, covering a range of topics. We provide a safe, independent platform of expression for everyone and anyone, including Māori and other BIPOC communities, rangatahi, disabled people, the LGBTQIA+ community, and people with limited economic resources.

So bring your best mate, tamariki, heck why not Nanny and Koro too, for an epic day of zines, cartoons, art prints, makers table, zine library and so much more!
