MoMac backs festival
A local creative marketing agency has swung in behind River Festival Kaiapoi. The festival will be known as the MoMac River Festival Kaiapoi, as the company becomes the major naming rights sponsor for the festival.
Owner Ryan McDonald says the MoMac team is “super proud” to be associated with the festival, which is an extension on how proud it is to be North Canterbury-based.
“We really love North Canterbury and half the staff are from North Canterbury.
“We pay all our Christchurch staff a travel allowance to travel to come out here because we love the place so much.”
MoMac began as a small team in Rangiora, with big ideas, but today boasts a staff of 16 and has clients across the South Island and beyond.
In 2025, MoMac acquired Create Design Studio in Rangiora, expanding its expertise. Ryan says the business now operates from two locations and MoMac has grown its graphic design team into a “powerhouse of creativity”, capable of handling everything from branding for startups to nationwide campaigns.
The acquisition also adds printing and merchandising to its suite of services, giving clients more ways to bring their brand to life.
MoMac is a storyteller, believing every business has a story worth telling, and it delivers this through high-quality video, photography, digital marketing, websites, and design.
“Since having kids of my own, and going along to events, I realise community events are valuable,” he says.
“They are affordable. There is no cost to get in, there are a lot of attractions, food and stalls. It is cool for the community. If you build strong community, we all thrive together,” Ryan says.
