New Caledonia quiz night + French buffet + could win a free trip... this Saturday 17 September
Because it is in a function room rather than a bar at Sky City people under 18 are allowed to attend.
You don’t have to be an Alliance Francaise member, and it doesn’t really matter how well people do in the quiz. It’s just an excuse for a bit of fun and a French meal. But as it’s sponsored by New Caledonia tourism it’s great value for what’s included, and attendees will go in the draw for a free trip to New Caledonia…
Buy tickets from the Alliance Francaise website. $25 non-member, $15 youth under 18. $15 for Alliance Members. Includes the meal, 1 drink, quiz and trip draw.

Poll: Do you go to live music gigs?
It’s “tough” running dive bars and speakeasies but a growing association is shaking up the New Zealand independent music scene.
These are the places where rising stars cut their teeth, members say, but they’re challenged by noise restrictions, alcohol licensing rules and the need to take on multiple tasks outside booking bands.
