Episode Details

Get ready for a dazzling summer night in Kaiapoi — the town’s biggest Matariki celebration returns with a magical light path, river illuminations, and sky-high fireworks. Running July 8–11, the Kaiapoi Lights festival kicks off with stunning installations at Cochrane Park, while the main Matariki event (free to attend!) unfolds just steps away in Norman Kirk Park on Friday and Saturday evenings. Expect live music, food stalls, market vendors, and a spectacular fireworks finale — plus, last year’s crowd of 15,000 proves this is North Canterbury’s must-see event. Entry to the lights festival is $10 with family passes available. Don’t miss the glow — it’s going to be unforgettable.
