Roost

The most Friday feeling of Friday feelings happening tomorrow Bank Sreet 🫶🏻 the moment we’ve been waiting 2 years for: Whangārei Fringe 2024 Programme Launch! 💛

We’re celebrating with LIVE MUSIC from Harmony Couch and TOMMY PICKETT (you can’t miss with a bio like that!)

You know what will help all your relationships? If you were funnier. That’s not a joke.

also, 50% discount codes will be provided to attend ONEONESIX 6pm gig with Cori Gonzalez-Macuer himself and Eli Matthewson ☺️

We’re all going on a STAR HUNT 🌟
Would you like $1000 cash? That was a rhetorical question.

How? Pick up “The Great Matariki Star Hunt” from and follow the clues to collect a total of 9 stars around the wonderful Whangārei CBD.

Completed forms get dropped into toy shop (in Civic Arcade, Bank Street).

And that’s it! Just hope (and wish upon a star) that your name is called when you attend the draw at on Saturday 29th June at 11am.
