Upper Hutt's Brewtown is once again the leading light for the Wellington region. This time it is in staging the four day Carnival of Lights over Easter.

Lower Hutt had the family popular lights show for a few years up to 2019 and it has been resurrected with additions to kickstart another annual highlight event at Brewtown.

So apart from world class lighting features ,experiences and attractions there will be entertainers and artists to keep those attending on their feet.

The Lower Hutt light show was a free open event paid by the Hutt City Council. The Brewtown event is partially paid for by the Upper Hutt City Council and partially from some of the funds coming from the entry fees. Most of it is under cover.

Don't be fooled by the publicised $10 an adult entry cost. It is $10 plus two sets of add-on fees if booking online and $15 if paying at the gate.

Brewtown of course offers several large restaurants so there is a choice for food supplanted with the usual meals-on-wheels.

Thursday April 6- Sunday April 9, 6.30pm-10.30pm

The Witching Hour has come to Upper Hutt's unique entertainment centre Brewtown.

It's two mini putt courses with ghostly, supernatural back drops and foregrounds. It's grim with a grin. And the actual putting "greens" are quality.

This new permanent attraction also serves local craft beer etc and is open up to midnight on most days.

So the putt courses add to the already established:
Ice skating rink
Go kart track
Ten Pin bowling alleys
Trampoline Park
Paintball field
Escape Rooms
Chipmonks Playland
Axe throwing
Farmers Market incl craft stalls

And of course also at Brewtown are the restaurants/cafes, craft beer and distillery -
Kereru
Boneface
Panhead
Te Aro
Wild Kiwi
Get Fixed
Fermented

Truly a conglomerate of entertainment that draws outsiders to Upper Hutt.
