Winter Lights Festival | Saturday 15 June 5pm-9pm
Howick Historical Village presents the Winter Lights Festival!
Experience the Village after dark on this enchanting winter evening. Explore the gardens and venture into historic buildings magically illuminated with twinkling light installations.
Make a paper lantern to light your way. Enjoy treats from the old-fashioned sweet shop and some of Auckland’s top food vendors. Warm up with a nip of mulled wine or hot spiced apple juice and dance the winter blues away with live music by The Flaming Mudcats!
Gather friends and whānau to enjoy the ambiance of the night in the Village’s unique heritage setting.
Admission: Adult $20 Child $10. Bookings highly recommended - limited door sales only.
This event is proudly sponsored by The Fairy Light Shop.
