Bites of Opera
An operatic experience to suit all tastes. Delicious morsels of food, beguiling bytes of Opera. Join the Christchurch City Choir for an ensemble of food and music, familiar opera choruses with soloists Margot Button and Malcolm Leitch, witty banter from Brain Law, and a stylish selection of canapes to compliment the music. Get a group of friends together, or make this your mid-winter work function.

Doors open at 6.30pm
Complimentary glass on arrival, with a licensed bar available to purchase drinks
Plates of canapes before the concert, at interval and sweets.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
