The BNZ Auckland Diwali Festival returns to Aotea Square and Queen Street on Saturday 4 November and Sunday 5 November, starting at midday for nine hours of family-friendly activities and entertainment on both days.
The Auckland Diwali Festival, known as 'The Festival of Lights', draws over 60,000 attendees annually.
Since its inception in 2002, the festival has been a vibrant showcase featuring traditional and contemporary music, dance, and stalls offering Indian delicacies and crafts.
This year’s festival is action-packed with 32 food stalls, 11 retail, 5 henna and 150 performances across the two days.
The event will conclude with a spectacular fireworks display on Sunday, 5 November.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
