it! Bay of Islands Festival
This is “it!!!” This is “it!!!” The word on the street after last years inaugural event is that - "it" is the event not to be missed - Love it! Cook it! Drink it! Bite it! Sing it! This is it!! A successful recipe of fantastic food, wine, entertainment and friendly locals all mixed up together in the Bay of Islands. The main act this year is THE FEELERS!
Along with mouthwatering food, award winning vineyards, Monteith’s beer and cider - we have lots of fun going on around the place - there are real kiwi competitions such as “Kina Sucking”, “Scallop Shucking”, “Oyster Shucking and Eating” and of course “Pie Eating!” - we are in Pai-hia after all!! There is great all day entertainment leading up to The Feelers. Right beside the festival we have Williams Rd where all the fabulous shops are and it will be filled with a buzzing market.
Just 3 hours North of Auckland, 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!
“it” Bay of Islands is a part of the “REAL New Zealand Festival”
