Te Rōpū Haka o Te Kotahitanga.
One of Aotearoa’s longest-standing kapa haka groups, founded in 1971 by Tihi and Wiremu Puanaki. The rōpū played a key role in the early years of the Polynesian Festival now known as Te Matatini helping shape the foundations of modern kapa haka, and are the only kapa haka in Te Waipounamu to win the national title in 1977. Known for its strong whakapapa, powerful performances, and commitment to cultural excellence, Te Kotahitanga continues to honour its legacy, carrying its mana across Aotearoa and beyond.
