Festival of Lights

The TSB Festival of Lights is in full swing in Pukekura Park – just a block from the House.  Free concerts almost every night, night markets, movies and the park is all illuminated.  Each night we either gather up some food and wine and make our way up, or sit on the front porch and watch the crowds walk by.

Our guests have been loving it – and we have bags with blankets by the front door that have been getting great use.  It’s especially fun for me when guests arrive and don’t know anything about it.  What magic to discover this big festival going on right next to where you are staying?

It’s a part of what makes this city truly great.
