Auckland Live's Free Outdoor Entertainment Series Is Back for Summer
Don't forget to pack your sunscreen for the summer-long outdoor event series.
The annual Auckland Live Summer in the Square has arrived just in time for the bluebird skies and reasonable temperatures to beckon our pasty, suit-clad bodies out of fluorescent-lit offices and into the sun for some after work and lunchtime entertainment. The free, summer-long, outdoor event kicks off in Aotea Square on December 1 with New Zealand's only professional, inclusive dance company Touch Compass performing Somatechnics, followed by a show from Auckland synth-pop artist Merk.
Other highlights include a K-Pop workshop with the quite famous South Korean singer and ex-member of Diva and Roo-ra and current member of Girl Friends, Rina Chae, on December 2; swing, salsa, bachata, tango, samba and zumba classes on the rollout dancefloor; folk music from Flip Grater, Shenadoah Davis, Tiny Town and Mahoney Harris; a performance from electro group SoccerPractise on February 2; gardening workshops — including basic beekeeping and how to set up your own organic edible garden; and Everybody Eats — a community dinner where you decide what the bill should be – on January 25.
To see the full calendar, visit the Auckland Live Summer in the Square website. The series will run from December 1, 2017 until February 4, 2018 in Aotea Square, Auckland CBD. Just remember to pack your sunscreen.
