SUMMARY:100 Years of Flight
DESCRIPTION:An important new transport connection from the West Coast to Canterbury was made on 4th June 1924 when Captain Maurice Buckley and mechanic Bill Harrington\, flew Avro 504K (H5241) Blazing Arrow from Greymouth to Christchurch\, pioneering the very first aerial crossing of the Southern Alps. The aircraft had flown the first flights on the West Coast as a key feature of the British and Intercolonial Exhibition\, a small world’s fair\, held at Hokitika between 15 December 1923 and 2 February 1924. Buckley and Harrington flew off West Coast beaches for several months doing joy-riding with more than 500 passengers and as far north as Westport and Karamea. A highlight flight was on 22 January 1924 when the Blazing Arrow flew the first flight to South Westland and return. When the joy-riding was all over\, Captain Buckley (a WWI trained pilot)\, with Harrington\, after a delay due to the weather\, left Greymouth at 2.20pm on 4 June 1924 and flew to the Sockburn Airfield at Christchurch in a flight time of about one hour and 30 minutes. A height of about 8\,000ft was reached by the Avro. The first-trans-alpine flight was a start to the revolution of air travel to come – and which continues as an essential aspect of domestic air travel to and from the West Coast to this very day. \nOn Tuesday 4th June 2024 – the 100th anniversary of the first trans-alpine flight -passengers on all Air New Zealand scheduled flights will be informed of the milestone day\, along with some festivities at the Hokitika Airport Terminal. Local aero clubs are planning special flights (weather dependent)\, and newspaper feature articles on both sides of the alps will pay tribute to the aviation pioneers and celebrate the trans-alpine air route – surely one of the most scenic in the world.

SUMMARY:Hokitika Wildfoods Festival 2024
DESCRIPTION:Hokitika Wildfoods Festival – Saturday 9th March 2024 \nHokitika’s annual Wildfoods Festival is a celebration of the West Coast’s unique wild food and lifestyle\, accompanied by premier entertainment. Visitors can sample a wide array of local natural foods\, ranging from some of the weirdest and most exotic delicacies to fabulous gourmet specialties. What’s traditionally found in the heart of the bush and deep in the ocean is served up with a fork for the daring. Apart from hunting the mountains for pigs\, deer\, thar and chamois and fishing the sea\, keen stallholders have not left many stones unturned in their efforts to explore edible possibilities. Even garden weeds have been discovered as herbs useful in festival salads and beverages. \nThe festival first came into fruition in 1990 when Hokitika local\, Claire Bryant\, instigated the very first celebration of local wild foods. Her wine cellar was very well stocked with a home brew of West Coast gorse flower wine and people were clamouring for a taste of her rose petal brew. The first event also coincided with the 125th anniversary celebration of the birth of Hokitika in March 1990. Locals and the rest of New Zealand were captured by the magic of the idea – a celebration of Hokitika and the wild foods of the West Coast. \nOffering tunes for all tastes\, entertainment is comprised of a top line-up of New Zealand musicians playing the main stage. \nThose with a creative flair can enter Feral Fashion – a wearable arts style competition modelled on the racing circuits Fashion in the Field. Contestants get creative\, forage in their surroundings\, and create a wild alter ego to wear to the festival. \nIf children are not interested in sampling huhu grubs\, the Kids Corner will keep them occupied with face painting\, a massive inflatable pirate ship\, a candy shop and more. \nPerforming in 2024 \nJon Toogood \nHarmonic Resonators \nTickets on sale NOW

SUMMARY:Creative Harp - The Old Lodge Theatre
