A promoter says concerts in New Zealand have a bright future, despite some high-profile cancellations. 

Tauranga reggae festival One Love and Taranaki's WOMAD have called off their 2026 showings.

Promoter Brent Eccles says other festivals like Electric Avenue are doing very well. 

He says there are plenty of future opportunities. 

"And I think you'll find that next year, with this new Government scheme that's going on, a lot will be announced."
