Hold on to your vertigo, because we’re partying 186m above ground with international house music heavy-weight Josh Butler at the iconic Sky Tower.

The UK’s Josh Butler shot to fame in 2013 with the release of Got a Feeling, which quickly became the second highest selling single of all time on Beatport. Described by dance music icon Pete Tong as one of the UK’s premier house music talents, label boss, DJ and producer Josh Butler is genuine top shelf talent.

He’s remixed Fatboy Slim, Carl Cox, Ellie Goulding and Joris Voorn, he’s toured the globe multiple times and played the world’s biggest stages and festivals, including numerous Ibiza residencies and appearances and festival sets at Glastonbury, SW4, Defected Croatia, Parklife and Secret Garden Party. Oh, and just casually, he’s played support for Grammy Award winning Chic.

It would be a shame to let such a momentous party pass without sharing it with the world, so we’ve partnered with Berlin-based Beatport and local streamsters Room One to stream the event live.
With an extremely limited capacity, this will undoubtedly be a Morning People to remember - don’t miss the opportunity to party 186m above ground before you hit the after party (work).
In usual Morning People fashion, dance-floor niceness will be served alongside complimentary Altezano Brothers Coffee, ice-cold Club Mate and feel-good fair-trade bananas from All Good.
A massive thanks to everyone that has come on board to make this happen - Josh Butler, Beatport, Room One, the Sky Tower team, and longtime supporters Altezano Brothers, All Good and Club Mate.

Morning People’s 5th Birthday | Elemental AKL

Morning People is turning five, and to celebrate we’re throwing the mother of all morning parties at the Auckland Town Hall, featuring electro-world phenomena Weird Together (Live) and Sambora from the legendary Shapeshifter.

From humble beginnings in a community venue in Western Springs, we’ve clocked up over 160 early morning parties, and along the way have roused a cult following of early-birds, go-getters, and people of all ages that just love to dance.
We’ve injected their special brand of morning mischief into underground clubs, rooftop bars, forests, grand theatres, wharfs, and on 24th July we’ll be taking over the iconic Auckland Town Hall.

Fresh off the back of playing the main stage at Splore, Weird Together will be bringing the party, with a full band experience including percussion, horns, guitar, and infectious world house music. Once the dance floor is well and truly warmed up, Shapeshifter’s own Sambora will round out the morning with big-breakfast sized helpings of drum and bass, jungle, rave and dance-floor goodness.
As it’s our birthday, we’re switching things up a bit from our usual mid-week antics, and will be partying on a SATURDAY from 7:00am - 9:00am.

In true Morning People fashion, top-shelf electronic music will be served alongside complimentary coffee and *oat milk flat whites!* from Caffe L'affare, All Good bananas, and the amazonian plant power of Club Mate.

Five years of showing the alarm clock who’s boss. Five years of thinking differently, disrupting schedules and choosing fun and community over routine. Don’t miss Morning People’s fifth birthday - our biggest party to date, and at one of Auckland’s most iconic venues no less.

Oh, and to celebrate five times around the sun we’ll be dressing to the nines – feel free to join us! Animal prints, frocks, smoking jackets, dressing gowns, pajamas… anything you think says happy birthday Morning People, let’s party!

Alcohol free
