Step into the heart of the World Buskers Festival with Busker Jams, the ultimate outdoor showcase under the summer skies of Ōtautahi Christchurch.

Running nightly from 23–31 January at the Arts Centre, Busker Jams brings together a rotating line-up of the festival’s funniest, wildest, and most jaw-dropping acts for a high-energy mix of circus, comedy, music, and pure spectacle. No two nights are ever the same — so come once, or come often, for a fresh dose of world-class entertainment.

Bring your mates, grab a drink, and visit the food trucks before settling in for a night that captures everything the festival is about — laughter, talent, and community vibes.

Whether you’re a fan of daring stunts, clever comedy, or captivating circus acts, Busker Jams promises something for everyone. It’s big, bold, and brilliantly unpredictable — the kind of show that turns a summer night into a memory you’ll be talking about all year.
