Concrete umbrella standa

Alex from Westmere

Anyone interested in free concrete umbrella stands? Also useful for mounting flags or other upright poles. The diameters are about 350-450mm.

Scratched up and a little bit chipped but would look really good after a quick paint.

Can also drop off in the Auckland region

Set all five senses alight at the first Tūrama Festival

Over three nights, Auckland’s Albert Park will be transformed into an illuminated landscape for Tūrama Festival. Free to attend, the park will come to life revealing its creative ambiance through installations, interactive art, performance and music.

Delainy Kennedy, Creative Director, says Aucklanders are in for something special. “We are bringing an immersive art show to Auckland featuring an incredible collection of NZ multimedia, dance and performance artists. Tūrama has a big focus on interactivity, there really is something for everyone. Check out the festival map that was released today”.

Tūrama’s music programme will showcase some of New Zealand’s best contemporary musicians, including Ed Zuccollo, Timothee Nolier, Hama McNeill, The Saxobros, Yoko Zuna (Jazz Jam) and Dylan C.

The festival will feature interactive work Sound of Peace, a soundscape woven from online messages of peace in many difference languages. Everyone is invited to record a message of peace online. The messages will be composed and replayed in surround sound.

All senses with come alive with the smells of delicious food, and taste sensations from the 12 on-site food trucks including the curiosity of illuminated gelato. A Corona bar will provide a relaxed place to meet up with friends before exploring the festival.

Tūrama Festival will join other leading sustainable events and is introducing a reusable serve wear system as part of their Refuse, Reuse, Recycle stance on waste.

Apply the code ‘TURAMA’ for $20 off your first ride when using OLA.

It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.
