Get to know the lineup
One of NZ's longest established tribute-covers acts, DnD Showband is set to perform at Christchurch City Council’s Summer Sundays Series in February 2026. Over the years the South Island based showband has played on the main stage at many of the major events across of the country including food festivals, masters games, carnivals and sporting events. They are also a regular act on the chartered club circuit across the country, performing tribute shows from their extensive catalogue of costumed theme shows such as Fleetwood Mac, ABBA, Grease, 60s, 70s, 80s, Rocky Horror and Moulin Rouge. DnD's performances reflect their experience as entertainers and artists. Their shows are skilfully delivered, visually energetic and brimming with enthusiasm. On Sunday 1 February 2026, as part of Summer Sundays in the Botanic Gardens, the five-piece band pays tribute to legendary rock band, Fleetwood Mac, with a set spanning 1968's Albatross through to 1987's Little Lies. Christchurch’s own Silver Train comprises some of the city’s finest musicians bringing the spirit, swagger and raw energy of The Rolling Stones to life with every performance. More than just a tribute group, they channel the electricity of rock’s greatest band with fiery renditions delivered with attitude and stage presence. From the infectious groove of ‘Sympathy for the Devil’ to the strut of ‘Start Me Up’, Silver Train deliver the hits with an edge that keeps audiences wanting more! Armed with gritty vocals, snarling guitars, and a rhythm section that rolls as hard as it rocks, Silver Train captures not just the sound, but the magic of the Stones on stage. Every show is a celebration of timeless rock’n’roll. Expect to hear all the classics from ‘Can’t always get what you want’ to ‘Wild Horses,’ ‘Jumping Jack Flash,’ ‘Gimme Shelter’ and more. If you are a fan of the Stones or just love live rock’n’roll then do not miss this!
