Snow is forecast!

The Team from Destination Wairarapa

The annual Greytown Festival of Christmas returns with a flurry of excitement this weekend. Remarkably, snow is forecast for this year's mid-winter festival and Greytown is set to be transformed into a winter wonderland for the entire month of July. Sparkly lights and magical projections on the Main Street every evening, snowfall flurries, stargazing, treasure hunts, plus shopping and festive eating & drinking. The jam-packed programme of events, workshops, food, live music and fun can be found here: www.greytownvillage.com....

The first major act of the 2023 festival is the "WBS Big Switch", kicking off from 3pm this Saturday 1 July. Coinciding with the first day of the July School Holidays, the Big Switch is the first reveal to visitors and locals of the festive snow-themed atmosphere, with lighting on for the first time along Greytown's Main St, and a chance to grab a bite to eat from food trucks, browse stores and night markets, get a selfie in the 'snow', and enjoy a spectacular fireworks display at 7pm. Warming up winter - come and join us in Wairarapa.

I'm sure you've seen it while doing your weekly shop... In fact, it may have even been you.

What do you think about people heading to the supermarket in their pyjamas?
