For Waitangi Day all staffed historic sites run by Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga will be open with free entry.

In the atmospheric setting of the Victorian ballroom, catch a performance of ‘Journeys Framed’, a unique, short theatre piece of movement and sound, exploring the experience of Pakeha migration to Aotearoa, creatively brought to life by distinguished performers from SeniorsDANCE company.

Performance times are 12pm, 1pm & 2pm. No bookings required, just turn up to see this moving and thoughtfully produced mini production choreographed by Susan Jordan.

Enjoy a spot of tea and a savoury or sweet treat on the verandah in the pop-up tea room (self-service due public holiday. No bookings required) before or afterwards or bring a picnic to enjoy the serenity of the garden.

Children will be entertained by the Enchanted Walk - a community art project featuring over 30 secret doors and hidden fairy and elf homes tucked under plants and in tree trunks.
