About us


Eyegum Music Collective organises indie music events which are run by a small group of music enthusiasts in Pōneke.

Eyegum Music Collective started putting on house parties in 2013 during the Pōneke music venue draught.

Most weekends Eyegum would host an array of indie music gigs in flats across the burbs which became notorious across the Motu. Since then, Eyegum has expanded significantly with a weekly residency at San Fran.

Eyegum Wednesdays is a free event held most Wednesday’s at San Fran which hosts some of the best up-and-coming independent acts across Aotearoa. In 2017 Eyegum launched Welcome to Nowhere (formerly known as Gathering in the Forest) which is a two-day indie festival showcasing some of the best local music, art, poetry and comedy.

Now an integral fixture within the local alternative music and creative scene, Eyegum strives to put on exciting events for audiences throughout Aotearoa.
