AUCKLAND, Today: A major new media deal is set to supercharge Fieldays 2026, with MediaWorks locked in as official Media Partner for the 10–13 June event at Mystery Creek.

The collaboration promises one of the biggest media footprints in Fieldays history, activating at least nine audio brands across radio, digital, streaming and outdoor.

As Fieldays heads into its 58th year, the tie-up brings together two well-known Kiwi brands focused on connecting rural, regional and urban audiences while spotlighting innovation in the primary sector.

For Fieldays, it means a bigger national presence and stronger storytelling, positioning the event as more than just four days on the calendar.

With more than 1,100 exhibitor sites already secured and visitor numbers expected to match 2025, momentum for 2026 is building fast.

Exhibitors can expect greater visibility across MediaWorks’ platforms, from pre-event build-up through to live coverage and post-event content, helping stretch impact well beyond the gates closing.
