Auckland during the month of January can sometimes feel like a bit of a wasteland — the roads are empty, the CBD comes to a standstill and it seems like everyone you know is sipping beers by the water at their Coromandel beach house (totally not jealous at all).

If you're based in Tāmaki Makaurau this January, don't despair. Despite what it may feel like, Auckland's a 'keep the ball rolling' kind of city and has plenty on offer to inject a little awesomeness into the month. Take advantage of the long summer days and quiet city to enjoy events, exhibitions, theatre, films and live music you may not get to see during the busier parts of the year.
