Live & Major Events
Across New Zealand.

Ozzy Osbourne performing live at ROCK2WGTN in Wellington, New Zealand.

Live events are unforgiving. The show goes ahead on the advertised date, the technical plan either works on the night or it doesn't, and the audience's memory of the evening is formed in the first ten minutes. You need a promoter or a production partner who has done it before — and can prove it.

Concert promotion, tour management, festival production and large-scale cultural exhibitions, delivered across Aotearoa New Zealand through our live entertainment division, Capital C: Concerts. Founded in 1992, more than three decades of live event delivery in New Zealand — stadiums, arenas, theatres, cultural venues.

Sir Elton John (134,000 across five tours), Bon Jovi, KISS, Ozzy Osbourne, Rock2Wgtn, Go Dutch Festival (316,000 attendees), the Anne Frank Exhibition, the Disney Toy Exhibition — and many more. One senior point of contact from first concept through to final pack-out. International artist logistics handled, case by case, to New Zealand standards.

Everything is an event. We treat it that way.

From intimate venue performances to stadium-scale international tours, KnotArt brings full-service concert and tour production to New Zealand. We know what it takes to deliver world-class live music experiences — because we've done it, repeatedly, at the highest level. If it involves a stage, an artist, and an audience, we know exactly what needs to happen next.
