10 New Zealand Events Happening In September 2018

September is the perfect time to discover new happenings. With a wealth of interesting events happening in and around major cities in New Zealand, you have so many to choose from. Why not blaze the trail with a few friends? There is no better way to attend the events than by booking bus hire in New Zealand!

 

The Spring Blossom Rooftop Pop-Up

If you love jazz music, then this is right up your street. This innovative idea gives a wonderful heady mix of spring blossoms in a rich arena of smooth relaxing music. The beauty is not just the soulful music, or the unusual ambiance – no – the real beauty is that you can enjoy it every day for a full 30 days! So, you can go back time after time until 5 October 2018. Treat yourself and your friends to a night or two of brilliant food, cultured music and loads of sweet treats! There’s even a charity ball event that features some of the top New Zealand musical talents and for every bottle of wine you buy – a donation is given to a well deserving children’s charity.

Zirka Circus

If you have never been to a circus, then you are in for a real treat. They have changed so much over the last few years that you may be unprepared for the sheer dramatic showmanship and expertise of the entertainers. Zirka Circus is the number 1 name in New Zealand and has been around for more than 10 years. They have been touring the world for the last 5 years, improving on their unique shows year on year – and what a spectacular event they have lined up for you this year! A brilliant display of talent and performances that will take your breath away. The show is suitable for children and adults alike.

An Evening With Chelsea Manning

If you are not inspired by change, whistleblowing, hardship, courage or politics then move onto the next category now! This thought-provoking evening with the renowned Chelsea Manning will leave you uplifted, emotionally drained, inspired and humble all at the same time. This is a truly remarkable story of courage and determination for truth and justice. Not to be missed.

Friends Of Waiwhakareke – Potting Working Bees

Perhaps not one of the hip and happening events, but this super get together every month allows nature lovers to combine their talents to enhance and improve the restoration project at Waiwhakareke Natural Heritage Park. This is the perfect place to take your children to help educate them about the area as well as the native flora and fauna. You will need to take gloves and tea! It is an experience where you can really get your hands dirty as you pot plants that are native to the area and as you do it you know you are contributing to the future of the heritage.

Children’s Discovery Trail

Your children will enjoy a voyage of discovery on the Hamilton Gardens Discovery Trail. This is a regular event that happens every month and is free. It will help educate children as well as allow them to explore enchanting worlds with a magical story to tell. Introduces them to a variety of different gardens and encourages imagination and creativity as well as respect for the planet.

World of WearableArt 2018

This is an exclusive event that attracts more than 60,000 people every year, not only from New Zealand but also from around the world. The event just gets bigger and better every year. It is unique in that it is a theatre production as well as a world of creativity. Some of the best works of wearable art, created by some of the top designers around the world, are immortalized on stage. This is truly an experience that you have never had before and one that will stay with you for a long time.

Pluck – Concert Harp and The Blue Celtic Harp

The harp produces music of enchantment and is so captivating it can transport you to another world. During this tour you will be inspired by Celtic music from Scotland, Wales and Ireland in the UK, as well as be regaled with interesting tales and stories. A simply beautifully relaxing and entertaining evening whether you choose 25 or 26 September 2018.

The Daffodil Express

The daffodil express is a wonderful way to relax on a train journey from Wellington to Carterton. It is an annual event that gets heavily booked every year – so you need to pre-book your tickets to ensure you get a seat. Not only can you ride on the train, but the town centre also holds a small market, with plenty of stalls available to suit every interest. You can also pick your own daffodils from the daffodil fields (for a small fee). The date is fast approaching on 9 September 2018 but if you miss it this year – pencil it in your diary for next year!

Friday Night Live Pro Wrestling

This is a very lively and entertaining event. It boasts plenty of fun and exhilaration for the whole family. Some of New Zealand’s best wrestlers take part and there will be plenty of time for you to support or boo your favourite character. In fact, this year the line-up will include Wayne la Perfeccion, international wrestling heavyweight champion who will be fighting to defend his title. Other popular additions include, Roddy ‘Rufguts’ Gunn, Sam ‘The Spartan’ Black, Shane ‘Shooter’ Sinclair and the ever-popular tag team champions Hayden Thiele and Jade ‘The Beast’ Preist.

Mind Body Spirit Fair

In complete contrast to the professional wrestling, you can attend a mind body spirit fair on 22 September at Lower Hutt, Wellington. As usual there will be lots of opportunities to receive reading from a variety of psychics, mediums, astrologer, palmist and crystal therapists. Take a photograph of your beloved pet that has passed into the spirit world and you will receive a sensitive and loving reading. Treat yourself or a friend to beautiful crystal jewellery. Gold donation gains you access to a day of relaxation and rejuvenation and the opportunity to make new friends.
