George FM’s R&V Radio Takeover

George FM is absolutely gassed to present Rhythm & Vines Chapter 24: The Final Dance in Gisborne!

The R&V Radio Takeover is back every Saturday in November featuring a 60 Minute Guest Mix from an artist on the lineup. All you have to do is text the keyword to 966 during the mix to be in to win a Double Pass with Camping to R&V.

Rhythm and Vines 2026 will be the festival’s final edition at Waiohika Estate, going down December 28th 2026 - January 1st 2027. It’s shaping up to be the ultimate way to send 2026 off in style as New Zealand welcomes 2027.

Bringing together major international debuts, returning festival favourites and iconic Aotearoa artists, the lineup sets the stage for a fitting farewell to the festival’s historic Gisborne home - and the ultimate way to send 2026 off in style.
