Free festive fun for the whole whānau
Christmas fun is returning to Porirua City.
The free Christmas in the City event will take place at Te Rauparaha Arena on Saturday, 3 December, from 10am to 3pm.
You can make a start on your Yuletide shopping with a selection of local artisan market stalls in the Arena corridor and there will be food options on the day.
Most importantly, this is a chance to have some free fun – check out the silent disco, indoor mini golf, bouncy castles, giant indoor games, face painting, arts and crafts stations, Christmas-themed competitions, and more.
The man in the red coat and the white beard is also rumoured to be making an appearance so don’t miss the chance to see him between 10am and noon, and then again from 1pm to 3pm.
