Sixteen Fire Kitchens

Whole-beast asado, smoking cauldrons, flame-grilled skewers and wood-fired everything from sixteen of the country's best fire cooks. This is the main event.

Live Music, Both Nights

Bands and DJs around the embers from early evening — the square stays loud and warm well past dark.

Full Bar Till Late

Local wine, cold beer, mulled warmers and cocktails poured beside the flames. Cash & card, all night long.

Marshmallow toasting for the kids

A marshmallow-toasting fire keeps the kids happy — family friendly, all whānau welcome.
