Get set for mind-blowing days and magic nights at the 30th anniversary celebration of Bread & Circus in 2023!

We will once again bring the party to the streets of Ōtautahi Christchurch in the Summer holidays, with an action-packed event programme to celebrate the festival’s 30th birthday.

The 2023 festival will run from 13 – 29 January, across three weekends and the summer school holidays in the heart of central Christchurch.

The world-famous busking pitches, free outdoor spectacle and must-see ticketed events are all set to return with festival organisers promising something for everyone.
