TSB Festival of Lights opens next Saturday!

NPDC Festival of lights

This year you can wander through giant inflatable mushrooms, get tangled in 200 metres of UV reactive rope and be teased by LED monkeys who have 'escaped' Brooklands Zoo.

The entertainment programme kicks off with iconic Kiwi band The Warratahs on 19 December. Special guest and master accordion, Alan Normal will also be performing. Can’t wait!

Make sure you arrive on an empty stomach with a picnic in hand or make the most of the delicious kai on offer from the Festival Hub food trucks on selected nights.

Light up your summer from 19 December – 31 January at Pukekura Park.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
