With this weekend so busy with entertainment, I couldn't wait until Tuesday to send out my 'What's On' for October. Central Otago is the place to be for what looks set to be a stunning weekend for the Alexandra Blossom Festival and the MetService says it's going to be sunny. There's plenty of fun to be had all around the area for the festival'. Click here to go to the website and check out all the exciting events.
The Central Otago Art Society's 40th Blossom Festival Art Exhibition is up and looking great. They've changed a few things this year and consequently received a record number entries. Try to have a look if you are in Alexandra before 4pm Tuesday.
Between October 3-5 “Across the Bridge in Bannockburn” is being held in various places around this very groovy Central town. Check this listing below to see what the locals have planned. It's going to be great!
Along from those couple of plugs there are plenty of good activities around our beautiful region to enjoy, so have browse below to see what tickles your fancy.
Don't forget to change your clocks back on Sunday. While it means you might have to get up earlier on Monday for work, remember the afternoon sunlight will be around for a bit longer from then on to enjoy.
Cheers
Maxine
