It's the final day of the ASB Polyfest at the Manukau Sports Bowl with all five stages back in full swing after Friday's weather disruptions including the cancellation of the Maori stage division two performances.

Among the colleges defending their titles this year are Western Springs, Alfriston, Sir Edmund Hillary Collegiate and Avondale College.

Event organisers say the Prime Minister Christopher Luxon is also expected to make an appearance just before midday with a mihi whakatau to be performed.

The wind and rain didn't hold back on Friday but neither did the performers as captured in some of these images!
