Farmers Santa Parade 2025
Experience the magic of Christmas like never before as the Farmers Santa Parade returns for its 92nd year!
This year’s Parade will feature grand floats, lively marching bands, treasured characters, dazzling costumes, and The Enchanted Woodland float; a whimsical fairytale scene of mushroom houses, butterflies, and woodland creatures.
Plus, everyone’s favourite pup! Bluey, starring on her very own float and the jolly man himself – Santa Claus!
But the fun doesn’t end there. After the Parade head over to Santa’s Party with Jono, Ben, and Megan in Aotea Square, with incredible stage entertainment, amusement rides, delicious food, and activities for the whole family.
Join us on Sunday 30th November for a day of fun, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime!

Freehold, renovated, future potential
Hi everyone, we thought we’d share this here in case you, or someone you know, is looking for a lovely 2-bedroom freehold home in Blockhouse Bay. This has been our investment property for many years, and we’ve recently put a lot of care into preparing it for its next owners, including a brand-new kitchen, new flooring, and fresh paint inside and out. Set on a freehold section of around 560m², it offers a generous lawn, a new veggie garden, and future potential to add a cabin or sleepout. We truly hope it becomes a place where new memories are made.
