Something For Everyone On Match Day
Something For Everyone On Match Day
Dunedin (Thursday, 8 September): Celebrate good times… come on Dunedin!
Whether you’re going to a match or not, there’s plenty happening in Dunedin on match days, especially in the hours leading up to kick-off.
Local bands and local entertainers feature in festival hubs in the Octagon and the block of George Street from Hanover Street to Frederick Street.
Bands will also give fans a musical lead down Anzac Avenue to Otago Stadium, and there are more than 20 food stalls dotted along the walking routes.
But it’s not just match day when Dunedin will be putting its best foot forward; there are events of every kind in the four weeks Rugby World Cup 2011 is in town.
Here are just a few of the highlights:

Glenfalloch Spring Festival of art…

Autospectacular…
