Each year Auckland Live rolls out the red carpet and invites film buffs and fans from across Auckland Tāmaki Makaurau to step inside The Civic and escape into the many worlds offered by Whānau Mārama: New Zealand International Film Festival (NZIFF).

We are proud to sponsor each year one of the three main cash prizes, The Auckland Live Spirit of The Civic Award of $4000, awarded to the filmmaker whose work shows the potential to one day open the NZIFF at Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland’s spiritual home of film, The Civic. 

The decades-long Auckland home of the Festival, the much-loved Civic brings a very special magic to the mix of highly anticipated dramas, comedies, documentaries, shorts, animations and more on offer in the annual film festival programme.
