Organisers said the idea of "Uru Raumati" came from "uruwhenua", the Māori term for passport.
Uru whenua translates to uru (enter) whenua (land or country). Being vaccinated is your passport to this raumati (summer) and all its musical festivities.
Campaign scriptwriter Te Aorere Pewhairangi said the idea was to target rangatahi through social media-specific content and Māori humour.
"Music has always brought people together, and in a time where lockdown restrictions have become the norm, concerts give us something to look forward to over summer."
Director Kimiora Kaire-Melbourne said: "We wanted to be a part of this campaign because it was fun, light-hearted and the messaging wasn't too forceful, something we thought would be more receptive to younger audiences who have likely grown tired of the heavy content in their feeds."
Producer Mikee Tucker said the goal was to create a unique and genuine message that connected people through the lens of music.
"The safety of Māori communities is our primary concern, followed closely by getting the music industry and Aotearoa back on track."
The campaign is funded by Te Puni Kōkiri via its Karawhiua campaign, Te Māngai Pāho & Wero Hauora Immunisation Alliance (WeroHIA).
