A retro revival with vineyard vibes!

FLASHBACK FESTIVAL
A retro revival in the vines!
SUNDAY 9TH FEBRUARY at WAIPARA WINEHOUSE

The team at Waipara Winehouse are super-pleased to announce the freshly minted
FLASHBACK FESTIVAL - a musical extravaganza featuring 3 of the World’s finest tribute acts!

Canterbury fans of legendary artists ABBA, Queen, and Elton John are in for a fABBA-ulous summer’s day of belting out time-honoured tunes with Bjorn Again, The Killer Queen Experience, and Lance Strauss’ Elton Jack. As if that’s not enough, A 70s DJ, and a top NZ covers band will get the seven hour long musical celebration started.

BJORN AGAIN – the World’s number one ABBA Show, and the only ABBA tribute act to be endorsed by Bjorn Ulvaeus himself, will bring the beloved sounds of ABBA (and, of course the unforgettable Mamma Mia soundtrack!). Their high-energy entertainment, complete with authentic 70s costumes, action-packed antics and “Swedish” chat, will have you singing and dancing the night away. If you missed their sold-out Isaac Theatre Royal shows, it’s time to discover for yourself why Bjorn Again are the most successful tribute act of all time!

Fans of Queen will be bowled over by spot-on renditions of their powerful anthems performed by THE KILLER QUEEN EXPERIENCE. John Blunt’s remarkable vocal resemblance to the late, great, Freddie Mercury brings the power and precision of Queen’s unparalleled back catalogue to life. The showmanship and flamboyance that Freddie brought onto stage, along with a portrayal of the entire Queen lineup complete with costumes, replica instruments and those iconic harmonies, will be embodied right before your eyes by The Killer Queen Experience.

Lance Strauss’ ELTON JACK is a dazzling celebration of all that is Elton; the clothes, the piano-playing and the voice that will propel the audience on a stellar journey through the rocket-man’s greatest hits. Bearing an uncanny resemblance to the man who created hit after hit, Strauss’ show is endorsed by Elton John himself. 

FLASHBACK FESTIVAL is a chance for fans to relive, or perhaps discover for the first time, the magic of these iconic artists at the peak of their careers. In the inspiring setting of North Canterbury's Waipara Winehouse, beloved in the past as “The Mudhouse”, the vineyard events centre changed hands in 2023 with a promise to bring the music back.  Earlier this year the team delivered delivered a memorable Six60 Sessions concert to a sold-out crowd in the vines.

Promising affordable, quality entertainment for all, retro musical feast FLASHBACK FESTIVAL
will not only feature epic dance-and-sing-along tunes but also quality food, and drinks, from local vendors, vineyards and brewers, spot prizes for best 70’s/80’s popstar costumes…making it a super-trouper of a summer Sunday!
