Rau Tau Pūaroha | Celebrate Compassion 2026

In honour of the Centenary of the passing of Venerable Meri Hōhepa Suzanne Aubert, Chris Skinner will perform some of his best loved songs, and some new ones. He is accompanied by James Lyon, who has written many of the lyrics with Chris. He will tell some of the stories behind the songs. This special concert will take place in the beautiful surroundings of Our Lady's Home of Compassion, in Island Bay, Wellington. The Chapel is a Grade One listed Heritage Building and is as visually stunning as it is sacred. This is an event not to be missed!
