welcome to the drop.
The Drop started the way all good nights do - with a yarn over a drink about where to head next. Between gigs at the Mount, chill afternoon sessions in Papamoa, and late-night laughs in Tauranga, we realised something was missing: one spot that pulls it all together. So, we built it. The Drop is your go-to guide for live music, local events, and good times across the Bay.
We’re all about celebrating the sound of our backyard - from acoustic Sundays by the beach to late-night DJs and packed-out pub gigs. Whether you’re chasing live tunes, a cold pint, or just a solid night out with your crew, The Drop helps you find what’s on and where the vibe’s at.
So, dive in. Check out our Gig Guide for this weekend’s lineup, or follow @thedrop_tga on Instagram to stay in the loop with the latest events, parties, and live music.
the team.
Just two mates making sure you never miss a good night out.
Anna
Founder and creative lead - The Drop’s social compass, keeping her ear to the ground and the good vibes flowing. Loves an acoustic set, avoids the dance floor, and drinks her whiskey like a real adult (with apple juice).
Lou
Co-founder and certified vibe scout - the one who somehow knows about every gig before it’s even announced. Lou’s all about music festivals, house beats, and an icy cold beer at sunset.
