The Great Harbour of Tara lies on the south-western tip of the North Island of New Zealand with the Cook Strait separating the North and South Islands, the narrowest point being 20 Kilometers/12 miles wide. [Check out the weather map below]. Being the most remote capital of the world, Wellington plays host to perhaps the most remote Fringe in the world!
The 15th New Zealnad Fringe Festival kicked off on Friday (8th February – 2nd March) with a fusion of comedy, live theatre, dance, music visual arts and outdoor events. The Fringe Festival runs for 3 weeks, with over 100 productions of pure entertainment to be enjoyed by 60,000 plus festival goers; after all, it’s summer and festival time down under! We have signed up to their Fringe Newsletter to read about what’s going on in beautiful NZ.
With the summer season in full swing, New Zealand’s weather map is worth a check before hitting the streets.
Have a great fringe festival Wellington!
