Outerfields2021 – Laiika and DJ Benny Salvador Added to the Line Up

Outerfields2021 – Time Table Announced! The early bird catches the worm!
Outerfields2021 will open gates on Saturday 6th March at the very agreeable time of 10.30am! Come down to the beautiful Outer Fields at Western Springs for breakfast from one of the many and varied food vendors (yet to be announced) and find yourself the perfect spot to enjoy the day from!

The timetable for the day has just been announced along with a message from Hopepa of Fat Freddy’s Drop to fans who are attending Outerfields2021.

The event proudly boasts an incredible live music lineup headlined by BENEE and Fat Freddy’s Drop along with premium food, bars and art. The day promises to cater to music fans of all stripes, mixing many of this country’s most acclaimed musical exports alongside the freshest names on the scene.

Like BENEE and Fat Freddy’s Drop; Aldous Harding, The Beths, Ladyhawke, Montell2099, Church & AP, Paige and Harper Finn plus the new addition of pop duo LAIIKA and wunderkind DJ Benny Salvador satisfying fans in between sets.

LAIIKA is made up of nineteen year old friends Grace Moller and Heidi Simpson. The two have been performing together since they were thirteen and have since been developing their unique sound and style. Debut single ‘Crush’ introduces the duo’s original personality. Heavily influenced by classic 80’s synth production and pop music of the early 2000’s, LAIIKA is an eclectic modern pop act with a difference. Experience them live when they open proceedings at Outerfields2021.

Outerfields2021 runs for a full day.

With 12 hours of music from gates at 11am till 11pm. The event is GA, all ages, and fully licensed with abundant food trucks and Auckland cuisine on offer amongst local artist installations, complementing the local sounds in the suburb.

Outerfields2021 is proud to support the work of MusicHelps, our partner charity. MusicHelps financially supports entities that use the power of music to change the lives of New Zealanders in need, and provides emergency assistance to kiwi music people experiencing extreme hardship and illness. Through its MusicHelpsLive campaign, MusicHelps has helped and continues to help people and businesses in the New Zealand live music community whose livelihoods have been shattered by the Covid-19 pandemic crisis.

PS: Due to Covid-19 protocols, Outerfields2021 has a firm postponement date of 4 December 2021 in the unhappy event that you idiots don’t use the Covid tracer app every time you step out the door and keep your masks on when you’re asked to.
