LUCKY DIP - ON THE ROAD (and Coming To A Town Near You!)

Buckle Up Whānau – the maddest tv game show is rolling out across the country. 

Whakaata Māori is taking its funniest show on the road to 13 towns across Aotearoa. 

Reviewed by STUFF as ‘New Zealand’s best new gameshow’, LUCKY DIP is a game show that invites contestants on stage to try their luck at trivial questions, amusing games and challenges.  Those who get through a round are in the pool for amazing prizes. 

Hosted by Luke Bird and Marcia Hopa, the show will visit 13 towns from Kaikoura to Kaitaia from September 15.  

“I’m super stoked that Marcia and I are leading the charge to bring the energy and ridiculousness of LUCKY DIP to communities.  The prizes are unreal this year.  There are no losers.  The only winners are whānau,” says Luke Bird. 

The rules of the game are simple. 

Answer two pātai (questions) right and choose a ball from the barrel. To get the prize the contestant must successfully complete a challenge. They then get the option to keep the prize or complete a second challenge and choose another. 

Anyone who’d like to be part of the audience for the best gameshow in Aotearoa can book their free tickets for LUCKY DIP in their town through the Eventfinda website here or go to: https://www.eventfinda.co.nz/Lucky Dip On the Road. You may even win a prize yourself! 

People can also check out the Whakaata Māori Facebook page for event details and a link to book tickets. 

All shows start at 6.00 PM.
