One of the most successful
aspects of the Marae's tourism programme has been the
Night of Maori Magic. The experience includes a powhiri,
a ceremonial welcome onto the Marae including the
traditional warrior challenge (Wero). Visitors are
conducted on a tour of the Marae meeting houses and
given a chance to sample earth oven cooking with a
selection of Hangi food. The evening is completed by
a performance of the Marae's cultural group, including
poi dances, action songs and the famous Haka.
