There's a range of events throughout the year which appeal to anyone and everyone. Kick off the new year at the legendary Rhythm and Vines Music Festival, enjoy the annual Te Tairawhiti Arts Festival which takes place October every year. Bring in Summer the right way over Labour Weekend with The Longline Classic & the First Light Food & Wine Festival. The Gisborne Farmers Market takes place every Saturday from 9.30am, and be sure to keep an eye on Gizzy Local for the most up to date local event information. Because with every season, there’s always a reason to escape to the East Coast and discover all that Tairāwhiti has to offer.
