This winter, prepare for Fire and Ice, when the happiest festival in New Zealand returns to Greytown from 29 June – 27 July 2024.

Yes, the best little festival in New Zealand is back this winter, and it’s set to warm the cockles of your heart once again with a month-long programme of spectacular lights, workshops, events, activities, Night Markets, parties, festive food, mulled wine and gin.

The festival is an annual tradition, where our community comes together to put on a mid-winter Christmas experience for all New Zealanders to enjoy. We’re bringing back some of the firm favourites – is that snow in the air? – alongside some exciting new events and activities. You simply won’t want to miss it.

Don your Christmas jerseys, gather with your friends and whānau around the outdoor braziers, and be part of the month-long celebrations. It’s going to be the perfect place to have fun and make special memories.
