First Responders Festival

Overview

Support and celebrate the wonderful people and lifesavers behind Wellington's Free Ambulance at the First Responders Festival.

The three-day festival, starting Friday 25, is a fantastic collaboration between St Johns Bar & Eatery, Tutatara, and Black Dog. And with a lineup like that, you can expect some excellent beer, including the specially crafted First Responders Pale Ale.

The weekend will be packed with live music, including iconic Wellington ensemble Vincent Vega and the Hateful Eight, plus delicious food, an outdoor cinema, a beer and barbecue tasting experience (ticketed), and plenty of stuff for the kids on family fun day. Plus, if you're looking for some new wall candy, a fabulous mural by Sean Duffell will be auctioned during the festival.

All proceeds from the auction and the First Repsonders Pale Ale, along with a portion of beer and barbecue ticket sales will go directly to the Wellington Free Ambulance.

So, head to the waterfront and enjoy a great weekend for a an even greater cause.
