Ever wondered what happens at Wellington Zoo as the sun goes down?
Throughout March the Zoo will remain open until 7.30pm every Friday, giving you the opportunity to experience the Zoo at dusk. On late Fridays, Zoo entry will be half price at 4pm or later.
Visitors will be able to enjoy the full Zoo experience, with special animal talks as well as evening Close Encounters available each Friday - but be quick, limited spaces available!
Late Fridays at the Zoo starts on Friday 6 March and will continue on 13, 20 and 27 March.

And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
