Matariki – The Sky above New Zealand

Eine ganz spezielle Sternstunde

LiveThe Pleiades star cluster can be seen particularly well in the Berlin night sky in winter. In New Zealand, these stars are called "Matariki" - their first appearance at dawn in early July marks the beginning of the new year in the Māori lunar calendar.Matariki has been a public holiday in New Zealand since 2022 - this year it falls on July 10.We cordially invite you to a very special "Magic hour": Travel with us from Berlin under the starry skies of New Zealand. In collaboration with the group "Kia Ora Berlin" group, we will discover the cultural significance of Matariki, immerse you in the ancient myths of the Māori and take you on a journey through space with the help of a 360° projection, where we will explore celestial bodies up close. The event will be accompanied by live music from Berlin-based New Zealand musician Graham Candy.Kia Ora Berlin is a group of New Zealanders in Berlin that regularly organizes events and brings the diversity of New Zealand culture to Germany.The event will be held in English.© StarhopperTranslated with DeepL
