The Others Way 2020 Update


We’re hugely saddened to advise ticket-holders that The Others Way is unable to go ahead on 11 September because of Government restrictions on audience numbers due to Covid-19. 

We tried really hard to persevere and make it possible for the event to happen, but with so many acts and so many venues, it’s not going to be immediately possible to stage the festival we announced, so we’ve made the heartbreaking decision to indefinitely postpone The Others Way for 2020 and refund all ticket-holders.

We hope to be able to announce an event at some stage in the future, but we’re not able to do that today which is why we are refunding tickets.

We’ll start the process of refunds from Friday 11 September - this may take up to seven working days to appear in your account. These will happen automatically, unless you request the opt out or donation option below.

If you are in a position to contribute a portion or all of your ticket to helping The Others Way and everyone involved that would be greatly appreciated. All donations will contribute to band costs, venue costs and festival costs already incurred.

How to donate to The Others Way band, venue and festival costs:

** To opt-out of a ticket refund: Please email admin@theothersway.co.nz if you’d like to contribute the full cost of your ticket (please email by midday Friday 11 September)

** A partial contribution: You can donate any amount via this link 


    We absolutely support the Government’s focus on health and dealing to Covid-19, that said this cancellation is another knockback for everyone involved. We’re a very small organisation and any support will be a big help.

    In turn, we want to say a huge thank you for your support of The Others Way, Flying Out and all the bands and venues involved. Please keep supporting your local bands, venues, bars, eateries and record stores any way you can.

    If you have any questions/concerns please email us at admin@theothersway.co.nz 


    From all the team at The Others Way and Flying Out!
