What’s on in Canterbury - share your events with us
Did you know you can share details of community events with your fellow neighbours on Neighbourly? Please let us know if you’ve got a school fair, community market, workshop or other event coming up that the public can attend! Click the Events tab within Neighbourly for more details.
We can also share this info in The Press’ weekly What’s On column (published Fridays in print and online at thepress.co.nz). You can email event info to us directly too at reporters@press.co.nz - please include the date, time, location, info on any costs/ticket requirements, info on what the event is and a photo, if possible.
There is no charge to submit an event for this column, but inclusion is not guaranteed. Submissions need to be in by the end of business on Tuesday to be considered for that Friday’s column.
