Music at the Rotunda 3 March

Julie from Springfield - Tihiotonga

Music at the Rotunda in the beautiful setting of Rotorua’s Government Gardens, is back thanks to some funding from the Rotorua Trust and the newly formed, Music Rotorua Charitable Trust!

Enjoy a fabulously relaxed afternoon at the Band Rotunda being entertained by two performances each sunny Sunday afternoon from 18 February to 31 March.

Don’t forget to bring your picnic, rug or chair to make your afternoon more enjoyable but, don’t bring your wine or other favourite alcoholic beverage as there is an alcohol ban in the area.

Travel by bike – Rotorua Lakes Council have promised bike parking to make your day easier!

Our artists this Sunday 3 March are:
1pm Now N Then
‘A group who come together for events such as ‘Music at the Rotunda’, ‘Art in the Park’ and other community events.
“The music we play is mainly up-beat, we find people in the audience enjoy dancing to the music.”

The music is from both now and back then, with the majority of music from the 60s, 70s and onward.
We come together to play music every now and then.
We practice every now and then!

2pm Evelyn Falconer
Well known to us all, professional singer Evelyn will perform Musical theatre, classical and jazz music.

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?
