The Grey Lynn Park Festival has been held in early summer in Grey Lynn Park since 1984, and celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2009.
It is the last independent community event in the city.
The event, which attracts on average 100,000 visitors each year, is organised by four people who raise money from stall fees and charitable grants.
It started as a local community get-together with working-class and Pasifika roots, though the appeal has broadened through the decades.
Local band Unity Pacific first performed at the festival in 1987, and have appeared many times since.
They headlined in 2009.
