Event Details

Get ready to cheer on the next generation of artists in this high-energy live painting showdown!

Young Guns: A Taste of Art Battle brings the excitement of the world’s biggest speed painting competition to the Concert Chamber at Auckland Town Hall, but this time it’s all about our up-and-coming teen talent.

The Young Guns will put their names in the hat for a chance to showcase their talent, to battle it out.

Watch young artists aged 13 to 16 go head-to-head in a 3-hour live painting battle where creativity, speed and flair collide. The twist? The audience decides who wins.

Expect spot prizes, fast-paced fun and the chance to take home an original artwork, with all proceeds going directly to the young artists.

This one-off event is part of We The Young, Auckland Live’s new festival for children and teens.

Suitable for all ages to watch
Contestants: 13 – 16 years
