Music at the Rotunda 1pm Sunday 10 March 2024

Julie from Springfield - Tihiotonga

Our first Music at the Rotunda for the season, was a fabulous afternoon of entertainment, in the beautiful setting of Rotorua’s Government Gardens! The following two were cancelled due to the weather!

Here's hoping it's a good one this Sunday!

Bring your picnic, rug or chair to make your afternoon more enjoyable but, don’t bring your wine or other favourite alcoholic beverage as there is an alcohol ban in the area.

Our performers this Sunday are:
1:00pm Blues Club, BOP Blues Club Inc‘s very own band
2pm Krissie Knap, born and raised in Rotorua, Krissie, is not only renowned for her recent standout performance as Aunty Lovey in the local hit musical "8 Scott Ave" but also for her extensive contribution to the world of entertainment as both an MC and performer. With a musical journey that spans from the 60s to today's chart-toppers, including classics by The Beatles, KC and the Sunshine Band, New Zealand music, and tracks by the Pussy Cat Dolls, Krissie, is set to bring her exceptional talent to this special occasion.

Enjoy a lovely, relaxed afternoon at the Band Rotunda being entertained by two performers every sunny Sunday afternoon right through to and including Easter Sunday, 31 March.

Travel by bike – Rotorua Lakes Council have promised bike parking to make your day easier!

Worst Xmas ever?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

Bob Owens Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
