Homai Te Pakipaki on Maori Television

The streets around Maori Television’s Newmarket studio will once again ring with the sound of music as the channel’s most popular Friday night live karaoke show, HOMAI TE PAKIPAKI, returns to air.

The show returns with a one-off special of past contestants on Friday April 30 at 8.30 PM, then opens up weekly auditions to wannabe entertainers from May 7.
