What with the concerning and unpredictable news about the spread of the virus COVID 19 you were probably expecting this announcement. It is with sadness that we have decided to postpone the WIFT Awards. The ground beneath our feet is just too uncertain, and it would be very problematic and costly to have gatherings of 100 or more banned before 2 April, for example. It's only a postponement though, never fear, and we can already see a fabulous party in the early spring, an opportunity for us all to get out and celebrate after a dreary winter! We'll let you know when a date is confirmed. Meanwhile, thank you to the many of you who have already bought tickets. The ASB Waterfront Theatre box office will be in touch with you shortly - your tickets can either be rolled over to the rescheduled event, or they can be refunded. You'll deal with the box office either way. One thing we know about the WIFT Awards - they are worth waiting for!!!
Noho ora mai r?, look after yourselves!
From Patricia and the team at WIFT NZ.
