Welcome to the website of

 North Shore Performing Arts Competitions Society Inc

located in North Shore City, Auckland, New Zealand.  

The Annual Festivals and the competitions they embrace, bring opportunity to young performers to compete with their peers on stage and be judged by professionals.  It is an invaluable part of improving their craft and gaining experience in front of a live audience.  We are pleased once again to be able to make it happen.   

James Ioelu, Pene Pati and Sarah Ann Walker are among the eight finalists in the 2010 McDonald's Aria at the Sydney Eisteddfod.  Tavis Gravatt, our Becroft Aria winner 2010, reached the Quarter-finals before being eliminated.  Please click here for more details.
