Every year, Matariki calls us to pause.
To pause and look up at the cluster of stars that Māori have long used to mark time and season. To reflect. To remember those who've passed. To give thanks. To look ahead.
At Redvespa, we work alongside people who have come from everywhere. Some of us were born here. Some arrived recently. Some have families and histories scattered across the world. We all have people and places that shaped who we are before we ever found ourselves together at Redvespa.
This Matariki, we wanted to honour that, so we created our Matariki Canvas: a digital and physical representation of place and connection.
Our Matariki Canvas enables you to view the dawn sky from anywhere in the world when Matariki is rising in Aotearoa on Friday 10th July 2026.
Your hometown, where your family lives, the city where you grew up - anywhere that holds meaning for you.
We'll show you the stars visible above that place when Matariki rises here in Aotearoa.

Tukua kia tū takitahi ngā whetū o te rangi.
Let each star in the sky shine its own light.
