TRIPLE PRICE AT BREWTOWN

Michael from Trentham

The Brewtown, Upper Hutt new year eve party is heading for its fourth or fifth year and has been a great success apart from toilet issues.
Good bands, good food, great craft beer, great venue, good atmosphere and little or no need for police action.
But from $40 per person in past years for non-VIP entry fee it has jumped to $119 right now and shortly will incrrase for "late bookers" to $139.
Nothing much has changed in band/entertainment quality to warrant such a huge increase. And from being under cover fir the first 3-4 years the show is now fully outdoors which subjects revellers to any conditions.
Two years ago the weather was coldish and breezy.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
