A celebration of film and alternative photography with workshops, exhibitions, and hands-on demos in Te Aroha.

Analogue Aotearoa is a new festival celebrating film photography and alternative image-making, happening 1–2 November 2025 in the historic spa town of Te Aroha.

From 35mm to wet plate, cyanotypes to pinhole, join us for a weekend of exhibitions, workshops, photo walks, zines, talks, and hands-on creative play.

All ages and skill levels welcome — whether you’re deep in the darkroom or just film-curious.

Want to be involved?

We’re inviting expressions of interest to:
– Exhibit your work
– Run a workshop or talk
– Host a stall or zine table
– Or simply attend and connect

We’re also looking for NZ-based sponsors and supporters keen to help grow this homegrown celebration of analogue creativity. Let’s bring Aotearoa’s analogue community together — and honour the beauty of slow, hands-on image-making.
