Open City - Sharing sweet, free things to do

Open City - Sharing sweet, free things to do

Gap Filler and All Right? have teamed up to create a parking meter with a difference in Cathedral Square.

This week our Open City parking meter began issuing tickets displaying inner-city adventures that celebrate the undervalued, sweet, free things to do in Christchurch.

Adventures like a perfect branch to swing on in the Botanic Gardens, checking out a quirky bit of street art, or playing a giant arcade game.

These little secrets and over 50 more have so far been suggested by locals and visitors on the Open City website.

As well as being a great, free family activity for the holidays, Open City is also perfect for the many people who have recently relocated to the inner city for work. Each Open City adventure aligns with one of the Five Ways to Wellbeing - connect, take notice, give, be active and keep learning - actions scientifically-proven to improve wellbeing.

To add your favourite free thing to do in Christchurch to the meter go to www.opencity.org.nz...
