The big day out for bogans is back, with a new look and its third new location in as many years.
Westfest is moving to Kumeu in 2016, and has announced a first-up line that will please fans of hardcore punk and metal.
Moving to Kumeu Showgrounds on January 30, Westfest's line-up is headlined by punk veterans NOFX and Refused, and is bolstered by The Bleeders, with Antagonist AD, Saving Grace, Dawn Of Azazel, Stonehurst, and For All Eternity.
It comes at a busy time of year for music fans, with Disturbed playing a show two days earlier at Vector Arena on January 28, and Laneway is two days later on February 1.
It's also been a chaotic festival season, with Soulfest and Echo Festival both cancelled.
