We are across the road from the Britomart Train and Bus station.

Getting There and Away
We recommend you bring your own shopping bags with you.
Shopping Bags
We are collecting gifts at the event under our Gifting Tree to give to those who could use an extra smile this Christmas. All contributions are welcome - so long as they will make a treasured present for someone. Thank you for supporting those less fortunate.
Gifting Tree
There is live busking-style music, giant games running throughout the event and a Story Corner with books for youngsters.
For a small fee you can also enjoy axe throwing with the Stage & Screen Combat School, facepainting, and bouncy castles.
