Super Bowl 59 - 10th February / Played at Caesars Superdome, New Orleans / Screening on Waiheke Island

If there's one sport Americans can justifiably claim to be world champions, it's American football - the game they invented (they just call it football and they call football 'soccer', but let's not go down that rabbit hole) and remain the only nation that takes it seriously.

This will be the 59th edition of the big game that provides the climax to a season that started in September.

Kansas City Chiefs are two-time defending champions - yes, they're the team with Taylor Swift's boyfriend. They've contested four of the past five Super Bowls, won three of them and have the equal best record (15-2) through the current regular season, so they're favoured again.

Their only real defeat came against Buffalo Bills (13-4) - the other came in the final round, when they rested their star players - but because they play in the same American Football Conference, those two teams can't meet in the Super Bowl. Their opponents are more likely to come from Detroit Lions (also 15-2), Minnesota Vikings (14-3) or Philadelphia Eagles (14-3).

If you don't understand the game, you can always tune in for the halftime show, which will feature rapper Kendrick Lamar, who also performed in 2022.

Thank you for the excellent description shared from RNZ

Sam Jones aka ‘DJ GOLDMAN SAX’ has booked his third and best ever gig at The Heke, and we’re excited. See in the autumn vibes with us!

This DJ has lit up The Heke twice so far, and been flown to Tuscany and Rarotonga in 2024 to play at the hottest weddings on the calendar. Sam offers a unique blend of DJ mixing and live music performance, including saxophone, flute, and keys.

We’re going to be having fun with Aperol Spritz specials and giveaways, as well as pouring The Heke’s beers, spirits and local wines.

Sam has played at festivals including Bay Dreams, Rhythm & Vines, Northern Bass, Soundsplash, and Electric Avenue, where he was a soloist with ‘Synthony'. He’s done multiple guest mixes on George FM Breakfast, shared the stage with accomplished Kiwi musicians such as Laughton Kora, Tiki Taane, Joel Shadbolt, Ella Monnery and Dick Johnson, and loves to share good music with good people.
