Date announced for Petone Winter Carnival
Hutt City Council has announced the date of
the best day out this winter; it’s Saturday 1 August, the
day of the Petone Winter Carnival.
The Carnival is free to attend and runs from 12noon – 7.30pm on the Petone Foreshore and beach. About 50,000 people are expected.
Favourite events like the Polar Plunge, rides, entertainment and the fireworks show will return for 2015. New events include a free sports zone on the beach, a chill-out zone and braziers after dark where people can toast marshmallows.
Petone Winter Carnival is free to enter, most rides are $5 for five rides and there is a heap to look at – it’s the best day out this winter.
The Carnival Facebook page at www.facebook.com/petonecarnival is very active in the lead up and a great place to get inspiration or ask questions about the event.
