Love Local Christmas
It's officially the month of Christmas!
The next few months will see a host of exciting new initiatives joining established events to add extra festive colour to the city and support downtown retailers - brought to you by WellingtonNZ and WCC.
There will be a Shop on Shop off bus, parking specials, and a new Love Local Pop-Up Shop on the corner of Willis and Mercer Streets, featuring a unique partnership with some of our local favourites (hint...hint... Fix & Fogg and Fogg).
There'll also be a dynamic programme of free local live music, circus and other performances will appear in shops, parks and streets to make shopping more entertaining on Thursdays till Sundays throughout December.
