There is great all day entertainment with a packed schedule with • Josh Leys • Dirty Dozen • Soljah and the final act will be The Jordan Luck band. NEW this year in the competition tent there will be a chef demonstration by two local top chefs who will impart some of their culinary knowledge! ‘it’ Bay of Islands is a family friendly festival with a childrens area and entertainment provided to allow parents to sit back and enjoy the music and taste some of the exceptional food and beverages!
Right beside the festival we have Williams Rd where all the fabulous shops. Limited number of tickets will be available - Tickets not released yet for 2012 - Watch this space!

The Bay of Islands is a top holiday destination that has retained it’s small friendly feel - there is plenty to do around the town whether it be to take a boat trip to see the dolphins, have a swim, kayak, visit Waitangi or head into the bush. Or you can just sit in one of the many cafes and watch the world go by!

Please note - no food or drinks or animals may be brought into the festival grounds
