Free show We Love Aotearoa hits ASB Showgrounds: Auckland this weekend
Looking for something fun to do in Auckland during the lead-up to Christmas?
You can head down to We Love Aotearoa this weekend at ASB Showgrounds in Epsom.
The free series of events kicks off on Saturday with an added day of virtual reality experiences on Sunday.
Tomorrow you can catch a live set from Stan Walker and pop-up performances from East Cook Islands Community Culture group, Ngā Rangatahi Toa, Guggemusik, drag queens Kita Mean and Anita Wigl'it, and Freshman's Dance Crew.
Aucklanders can take part in a silent disco, photos with Santa, Animal Cycle Roller Rink, interactive art installations and the We Love VR zone.
Drift-racing legends Mad Mike Whiddett and Darren Kelly from The Heart of Racing will chat with fans, sign autographs, take photos, and display their cars.
A group of international travellers stuck in Auckland during the Covid-19 pandemic launched the series.
The group says they were overwhelmed by the blessings and love they received from the people of Aotearoa during their stay.
These events are their way of thanking New Zealanders for their efforts, they say.
