Hoedown Showdown

Southward Theatre, Paraparaumu, Kapiti Coast

TUE 12 MAY 11:00 A.M. - 12:45 P.M.

Get ready for a rootin’-tootin’ show of frenzied fiddling, toe-tapping tunes, and pure country magic in Hoedown Showdown. From the heartfelt ballads of John Denver and the timeless charm of Dolly Parton, to the classic sounds of Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, and Willie Nelson, this concert is packed with the greatest hits that defined a genre and stole our hearts. Bringing the barnstorming energy to life is our phenomenal live country band, and great artists including the electrifying Marian Burns lighting up the stage with her world-famous, foot-stomping fiddling, and the incredible Karl Perigo wowing the crowd with his signature yodelling and powerhouse vocals. This is an all-out country hoedown you won’t want to miss, so dust off your cowboy boots, grab your hat, and get ready to dance and sing along.
