NZ Music Hall of Fame

2025 INDUCTEE
THE WARRATAHS
From a humble pub residency in Wellington to becoming one of our country’s most beloved and enduring bands, The Warratahs have spent nearly four decades weaving their music into the fabric of New Zealand life. Their songs—gritty, poetic, and unmistakably Kiwi—have echoed through dance halls, pubs, clubs, and backroads from Northland to Bluff. The Warratahs will be inducted at the 2025 APRA Silver Scroll Awards | Kaitito Kaiaka on 29 October.

Run by APRA AMCOS NZ and Recorded Music NZ, Te Whare Taonga Puoro o Aotearoa | New Zealand Music Hall of Fame exists to recognise and celebrate the contributions of artists that have had a significant impact on the evolution and development of Aotearoa music.
