Get the family involved this summer
Hi locals! Looking for something to do with your kids this summer? The Hamilton Gardens Arts Festival has something to offer everyone – even the littlest of festival-goers.
The weekends are full of great kids’ events, from a toddler boogie and princess sing-along to the Family Fun Day on Saturday 23 February. Bring a picnic or grab something from one of our food trucks, and settle in for a day of free children’s films, a ukulele jam, and of course the classic teddy bear’s picnic.
We’d love to see you there!

Festival Co-Directors
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?

One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
