Twilight Christmas at the Village 2024
Step into the magic of Christmases past in an enchanting heritage setting!
Wander through festively decorated cottages and grounds staged with trees, garlands, and stockings hung by the fire with care! Enjoy the magic of our Christmas lights nestled amongst the decorations as the sun goes down.
Grab a bite to eat at a variety of food trucks or a freshly brewed mulled wine or warm spiced apple juice, and enjoy live carol-singing performances throughout the night! There will be something for everyone with Christmas crafts, the chance to meet Santa in the grand Puhi Nui homestead, and our old-fashioned sweet shop filled with treats.
Browse the mini market stalls filled with handmade goods and seasonal treats like mince tarts and plenty of other goodies to fill stockings!

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
