French style buffet & party for Bastille Day - 15 July at Sky City
Alliance Francaise is delighted to invite you to our special Bastille Day celebration!
This special event is the perfect opportunity to celebrate French National Day in a friendly and festive atmosphere. In the middle of the New Zealand winter, we offer you a warm evening of French spirit. Whether you are a Francophone or simply curious to discover French culture, this evening will be an opportunity to share unique moments and create memorable souvenirs.
Come and enjoy the delicious French food at our buffet and enjoy a glass of champagne or fine wine. We invite you to join us from 6pm to share this memorable July evening at SkyCity Hamilton. Bring a group of family or friends - the event is open to all! We will have live music from "La Mer" French guinguette band for the first two hours of the evening.
Please note drinks are not included in the price and are to order and pay at the bar. There will be a choice of French wines (red, white and rose) on offer, and Orangina.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.
