TSB Festival of Lights opens next Saturday!
This year you can wander through giant inflatable mushrooms, get tangled in 200 metres of UV reactive rope and be teased by LED monkeys who have 'escaped' Brooklands Zoo.
The entertainment programme kicks off with iconic Kiwi band The Warratahs on 19 December. Special guest and master accordion, Alan Normal will also be performing. Can’t wait!
Make sure you arrive on an empty stomach with a picnic in hand or make the most of the delicious kai on offer from the Festival Hub food trucks on selected nights.
Light up your summer from 19 December – 31 January at Pukekura Park.
