Love Local Expo back in June
Mark your calendars for 10 June, as the popular Love Local Expo is back!. Now in its fourth year, the expo at Te Rauparaha Arena showcasing the best of our local products, services, crafts and community services, has become a not-to-be missed event.

15.7% ... It is complicated
