Art Deco Weekend

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

This weekend would have to be one of the biggest on the Hawke’s Bay calendar each summer. So if you want to see what it was like back in the early 1900’s take a tour round town and there will be something on nearly every corner.

The line up of events are huge this year and already so many of them are sold out. Doesn’t seem like people are willing to give up having some fun. Things might be hard all over the world, but do need to still live on and enjoy some of the good things in life. So if you are heading here for the weekend here’s a list of a few things that are still not yet sold out. And of cause it’s free to just go touringabout and taking in all the sights.
