Our annual fundraiser with our long-time pals at RadioActive.fm is happening soon and it wouldn’t be the same without some killer auctions!
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we’ve got a lineup of awesome items up for grabs, from local artists, creatives, and organisations who’ve donated a range of goodies to suit every taste.

'Thelma and Louise' but it's two men and they burnt their house down. Now they're in Gisborne.
Join us as schools across Te Whanganui-a-Tara battle it out in a winner takes all improv showdown!
From a gorgeous three level repurposed historic building we nurture creative talent and showcase exciting new NZ performance. Our buzzing year-round programme is an alternative mash-up of theatre, dance, improv, stand-up, and experimental work.
We partner in the development of exciting and bold performance. Through the meeting of digital and live art, bolstering BATS as a hub of creativity and showcasing diverse festival activity we support career sustainability and wellbeing for all.
We aim to make visiting BATS as easy as possible for everyone. If you need support with access, audio, visual needs, or with reserving an easy access seat in the theatre we encourage you to contact us prior to your visit and discuss your individual needs with our friendly Box Office team.
Putting on a show at BATS is a pretty sweet deal. We spend more supporting our shows than we make back with our low venue fees. That’s alright by us though, we exist to support emerging artists and showcase new NZ performance!
