Poll: What do you think about the new entry charge at Hamilton Gardens?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Hamilton Gardens welcomed its first ever paying customers on Wednesday, and one Napier couple was simply chuffed that they ever had gotten away with free entry in the past.

David and Priska Wright, some of the first people in history to pay to see the Hamilton Enclosed Gardens, were more than happy to fork out $20 each for the privilege.

Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval ‘hospital’, without the stress of the bubonic plague.

The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
