Mighty: A Small Venue With A Big Voice Lands In Te Komititanga
In celebration of NZ Music Month, a new musical experience is coming to the heart of the city, and it's not what you'd expect. From Tuesday 26 May to Sunday 1 June, a custom-built mini theatre called Mighty will pop up in Te Komititanga, offering the most intimate live gigs you'll find anywhere in Aotearoa. Completely free. Built around a 10-foot shipping container and clad to look like an old-fashioned theatre - complete with red velvet curtains, a rug and a standing lamp - Mighty offers front-row seats to unforgettable performances from some of our most talented songwriters. Each show invites just 4–6 people at a time into the cosy interior, where they'll hear one song, performed totally live and completely acoustic. No mics. No tech tricks. Just voice and guitar or keys. With 20 performances over the week and a line-up of exceptional local talent, there's a twist: while all performers will be announced in advance, their set times will stay secret. It's songwriter roulette, designed to surprise and delight. Some of our brightest lights and rising stars will be performing, including Tiny Ruins, Anna Coddington, Julia Deans, Lips, Romi Wrights, Phoebe Rings, Jazmine Mary, HINA, PARK RD, Rewind Fields, Jol Mulholland + more. Mighty celebrates the power of a single song, shared in person. Live. Acoustic. Solo. Mighty is a love letter to live music, reminding us that sometimes the smallest stages create the biggest moments.

Seven Croatian fans arrested for Nazi salutes at France-Croatia football match in Paris
ADVERTISEMENT Seven Croatian football supporters have been arrested for performing Nazi salutes during Sunday's Nations League match at Stade de France, according to French police. Paris police prefect Laurent Nuñez confirmed on Monday that the arrests were made as a result of heightened security measures during the France-Croatia match in Saint-Denis, just north of the French capital. 'Sport is and must remain a celebration,' he said in a statement on social media. 'These individuals have no business in a sports arena.' While the Paris police prefecture did not initially disclose which team the supporters belonged to, the Croatian state news agency HINA reported that all seven individuals detained were Croatian citizens. According to HINA, citing police sources, a group of around 300 Croatian fans marched towards the stadium before kick-off, some singing patriotic songs, performing Nazi salutes and setting off smoke bombs. Once inside the stadium, several supporters were seen repeating the Nazi gesture during the Croatian national anthem and again during the first half of the match. Firecrackers and flares were also ignited in the Croatian supporters' section, authorities said. HINA also reported that police found "iron rods, telescopic batons, sharp wooden sticks and smoke bombs" in the possession of some of the fans. However, after the final whistle, fans dispersed calmly, and the buses transporting them departed the venue without any disturbances.
