Christmas lights up Te Rauparaha Park

Porirua City Council

After a challenging year it’s time to celebrate, and Porirua City has just the event to get people in the Christmas spirit.

Christmas in the City will be held at Te Rauparaha Park on Saturday 5 December, from 12–4pm, with a wonderland of lights, fun and a sprinkle of Santa’s magic.

Date: 5 December
Time: 12–4pm
Venue: Te Rauparaha Park, Porirua.
Entry and all activities are free.

Activities will include bouncy castles, arts and crafts, a photo booth, bubbles, mini cars, face painting, a free sausage sizzle, snow cones
and more.

There will be fun Christmas games like tree decorating, Christmas wrapping race, stocking guessing game and the bauble and spoon race – check out our website for the games timetable and more information.

Of course, Christmas is not Christmas without a visit from Santa! We have it on good authority that Santa will make a stopover from the North Pole to visit our tamariki.

You can get a selfie with Santa or post him a letter in our special mailbox.

So grab your sunhats, put on sunblock and set out on your bike, scooter, own two feet, catch a bus or train or take advantage of our free weekend parking.

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!
