Silo Park Announces March Calendar Including ‘Silo Sessions – Christchurch Edition’, ‘White Night’ And More

Silo Park is excited to announce its March activity which includes the fourth instalment of Silo Sessions, as well as collaborations with the Auckland Fringe Festival, the Auckland Arts Festival, ‘Fashion in the Big Little City’ and the Silo Cinema schedule.

To celebrate Christchurch, and to mark the two year anniversary of its disastrous earthquake, Silo Park will present a free event for the community – ‘Silo Sessions – Christchurch Edition’. This fantastic musical event features an amazing line-up including Lyttelton's own Al Park, The Eastern, and Lindon Puffin. These well-known NZ muso’s will pack up the songs, the traveling sacks and throw the banjos, fiddles, acoustic guitars, bullet mics and harmonicas and travel to Auckland to help raise money and awareness of the challenges still being faced by Cantabrians.

March is also the month for collaborations down at Silo Park. This Friday 1 March sees an appearance from ‘Snake the Planet’ and ‘Jeu Play’ as part of the Auckland Fringe Festival. On Friday 8 March, Silo Cinema presents ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’, as part of the ‘Fashion in the Big Little City’; followed by BeSpoke on Sunday 10 March – a special, free event where local fashion designers will come together to show their latest styles, as well as a full market of designers and bicycles, fashion shows, street food, music and more.
