Christmas in The Hutt is this Saturday 7 December

This Saturday at 4.30pm the gates will open at the Hutt Recreation Grounds for Christmas in The Hutt 2013. Entry is free but collectors will be on hand taking donations for Hutt Hospital Foundation.

The community showcase will begin at 6pm, the main carols event at 7.30pm and then Santa and the fireworks finale will be at 9.30pm.

Christmas in The Hutt, which is the Wellington region's biggest Christmas concert runs rain or shine. However, in the event of extreme weather, a cancellation will be announced on www.christmasinthehutt.org.nz and on our Facebook page as well as Radio Network stations like Classic Hits, Newstalk ZB and ZM.

The event is a fun family show and while people are encouraged to bring their own food and drink, a liquor ban will be in place. The event is alcohol, drug and smokefree.

Walking or taking public transport is the best way to get to the Grounds on Myrtle Street. Some pay parking is available at Hutt Valley High School on Woburn Road. People can also park on the streets surrounded Hutt Recreation Grounds but will need to adhere to parking restrictions and park with consideration of the residents who live there. Riverbank car park and the Fountain car park on Laings Road will also be open and are a short walk from the venue.
