SHAPESHIFTER,
Saturday 25 Feb, Forsyth Barr Stadium. BUY TICKETS
After being picked up by the iconic Hospital Records, Shapeshifter have gone from strength to strength. From Mangawhai Tavern (legendary venue that it is) to the stages of Europe, Shapies entrance crowds with heartfelt lyrics, heartpumping drums and mesmorising bass lines uplifting the audience like the All Blacks beating the Aussies.
The Stadium is the only venue big enough (and after our 'summer', dry enough) to hold New Zealand’s favourite live drum and bass act, and OUSA is PUMPED to have them grace our Orientation again as one of only two South Island shows they’ll be performing.
SHAPESHIFTER! OUSA! ORIENTADIUM!
Moshers unite as we bring back Shihad, New Zealand's leading Rock act! After being inducted into NZ’s Rock n Roll Hall of Fame at the 2011 Vodafone Music Awards, they make their welcome return to Dunedin. Since their last appearance they’ve released another stellar album, Ignite. They continue to rip up the rock scene like they have for over twenty years, and Toogood is still living up to his name!
Sharing the stage is Cairo Knife Fight, who have recently returned from CMJ Music Festival in New York. This two-piece will blow you away; Nick Gaffaney holds down the drums, keys, samples as well as singing while Aaron Tokona (Fly My Pretties, Weta) spends his time schredding on the guitar.
Also in support is local Dunedinites, Knives at Noon. After releasing ‘Glitter Guts’ to rave reviews in 2010, they have been found supporting the likes of Smashing Pumpkins and Vampire Weekend.
This is going to be the BEST Orientation Rock night in New Zealand, and to top it off we’ve got the Orientadium Stadium ready to ROLL for SHIHAD, CAIRO KNIFE FIGHT and KNIVES AT NOON!!!
OUSA doesn’t have to look overseas to get the BEST Hip Hop acts. This year we’ve got a PURE Kiwi line up including; David Dallas, Homebrew and P-Money! Plus we’re making it CHEAP as CHUPS or free with your Orientadium pass!
On the back of a stint in the USA, and the release of the Rose Tint Deluxe Edition, David Dallas and his band play their first O’week together at the Stadium this year for Otago showing us all his latest tricks!
Homebrew are blowing up the Hip Hop scene and armed with their edgy and political tracks they packed out the Radio One 91fm Onefest in 2011! Now they’re back to do it again on an even larger scale so you’re guaranteed to get your fill of Homebrew in ya!
PLUS the scratch master that is P-money and our very own Dudstown Soundstystem will top off New Zealand's TOP Hip Hop line up for O’week 2012! OUSA - we’re providing you with every thing you want and everything you need!
O'Week isn't all fun and parties. Oh wait, yes it is! And for a night of fun we have locked in the best comedians in New Zealand supported by some of Otago University's finest. First up we have the rooster who sometimes needs a booster, multi award winner, Dai Henwood. He's a regular on TV3's 7 Days and he could host just about anything you throw at him, even your mum. Dai is joined by two up and comers that are splitting the sides of Kiwi comedy, Rose Matafeo, who is known for her role hosting U Live on U TV, and Rhys Mathewson, youngest ever winner of the Billy T comedy award.

Tuesday 21 Feb, Forsyth Barr Stadium. BUY TICKETS
It’s the tradition of all traditions, the Otago Toga Party is the time where the freshers UNITE!
This year we've locked in the perfect setting, with the new Forsyth Barr Stadium being the colloseum of choice for our Orientadium MMXXII Toga Party! BULLETPROOF will toga us crazy, backed up by DJ Dhalsim, winner of the Shapeshifter Remix competition and mixer of all things bouncey.
It's the night that welcomes the new crew to Dunedin and it’s kicking off the O week parties, so make sure you fresh yourself up to be a part of it!
The legendary Guy Cater has been hypnotising and humourising Otago students for 20 years! He’s headlined in Las Vegas, and more importantly he was the first Hypnotist ever to perform in both Singapore and the Cook Islands. He takes the hypnotist game seriously, ensuring you have serious fun as he transforms you from a first year health sci student into a love struck mute, only able to show your love through interpretive dance moves.
It’s a night where the skill and experience of Guy Cater will put you at ease and spread laughter throughout the stadium. There’s tonnes of crowd participation giving you the chance to be moulded to Cater’s will, or see your new friends and classmates taken on a journey like no other!
