About this opportunity
Rolling Stone. Fifty-eight years old. The most recognised music brand on the planet. And in 2026, the New Zealand Awards are back.
One evening in Auckland. 200 invite-only guests - the artists, the industry heavyweights, the tastemakers who shape NZ music culture. Three exclusive live performances. Awards across Album of the Year, Single of the Year, Debut Album, Fans Choice, and more. The kind of room that doesn't happen twice.
The campaign around it runs for six months. Digital, print, editorial, social, display, PR - building to the night and amplifying well beyond it. Forecast NZ reach of 1.4M+, backed by 250,000 monthly NZ users, 740,000 monthly page views, and 5.2 million global Rolling Stone social followers.
Pre-event fan voting drives mass awareness. Post-event, premium content keeps the moment alive - performance videos, interviews, backstage access, content usage rights.
Your brand is part of all of it. Before, during, and after.
Partnership packages available at multiple investment levels. Enquire now.
