B3 Events are pleased to announce More FM as the new name behind the iconic Devonport Food, Wine & Music Festival. Event organizer, Gavin Busch, says "More FM are a great fit, they have been a supporter and partner of the festival for a number of years. They promote the event on the radio and are a real part of the entertainment with their hosts MC'ing across the day. The More FM tagline of Live it, Love it, Sing it also resonates very well with the festival which, with the awesome combination of Food, Wine and Music sets the scene for what we know people have come to love about the event".

Headlining the festival next year will be the best entertainment line-up ever. On Saturday the 18th Che Fu and Boh Runga will be headlining with support from dDub, while Sunday the 19th February sees The Phoenix Foundation taking the stage. Other highlights include James Ray, Jan Helliegel and Shona Laing as well as two of New Zealands best stand up comedians, Andrew Clay and Jeremy Elwood.

The festival started in 1990, as a community fund raising project of the Rotary Club of Devonport who remain the charity of choice, the festival celebrates its 23rd consecutive event in 2012. Busch says "With over $2 million raised to date and distributed to many local, national and international projects, securing a sponsor such as More FM helps to ensure Rotary will continue to be able to do the great work they do. As the organizer of this iconic Auckland Summer event B3 Events looks forward to partnering with More FM in the future to make the festival even better".

More FM Network Programme Director, Ande Macpherson adds "This is perfect timing for us to become more involved in an event which has always been an important part of our summer calendar.
