PUR is a Wellington-based techno collective dedicated to building an inclusive and connected underground culture in a city where techno is still emerging.

By curating events that centre around deep, minimal, and hypnotic techno, each PUR night is designed as a journey through sound and atmosphere — creating moments that connect people beyond the dance floor.

Our kaupapa is grounded in inclusivity, self-expression, and respect. We believe in the power of people coming together through sound and movement, and in fostering spaces where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.

PUR represents the evolving voice of Aotearoa techno — providing spaces that celebrate community, creativity, and individuality. We see ourselves as part of a growing movement, giving Wellington a stronger place within Aotearoa’s underground landscape and connecting it to the wider world.

Our goal is simple: to grow a scene for an audience that’s hungry for it, and to nurture a community that reflects the openness, creativity, and unity that make this place unique.
