Aotearoa's annual music industry football fundraiser!

With the Auckland Stadiums team taking out the inaugural event, all bets are off for 2025, with the expansion from 16 to a whopping 20 teams, the competition for the F.F Shield just got real! 

Demand has been huge, our phones have been ringing off the hook with questions about when this grand tournament will return. The wait is over, tighten up your cleats and slip on your shin pads. Prepare yourself to kick off  with a screamer top left hand corner from 25 yards! Come Thursday 16 October, Mt Smart Stadium, (well, Arena 2) will host The MusicHelps Footy Fundraiser 2025! 

It actually gets better, because you or your team participated in 2024, we are giving you the exclusive and limited time offer to register your team before we go out to the wider music community. From today (June 19) until Thursday 10 July tickets will be available to you. On July 10 we will open the gates to all!

‘MusicHelps are excited the Footy Tournament is back for its second year. It’s a fantastic way to bring together all sectors of the music industry to enjoy a day of friendly competition and raise some money.   Our thanks to Dave Munro (Eccles Entertainment) and Finn McLennan-Elliott (The Tuning Fork) for once again producing the event and proving professional rivalry can be an instrument for good.’

All profits from team registrations go to MusicHelps, supporting Aotearoa’s music community through their mental health and wellbeing programmes, the Benevolent Fund, and the Legacy Project.

Each team is guaranteed at least four games, and of course, some sideline laughs and industry banter. Whether you're lacing up or just cheering from the stands, there’s a way to get involved.
