Two items of note during the Tiger displays were the ribbon cutting where one aircraft chases the other and tries to cut one of the ribbons attached to the lead aircraft. The other was the mass takeoff and flypast of 6 Tigers. See below.

Tigers on the prowl...
It would not be an airshow without a few de Havilland DH82A Tiger Moths around. These [seemingly] ancient aircraft have a long connection with New Zealand, not only having training thousands of pilots but also being at the very start of New Zealand's aerial topdressing activities.
