Buskers move to Nelson College
1 February 2015
Due to rain, the Buskers at Fairfield Park event is moving indoors to the Nelson College school hall on Waimea Road.
Parking is limited inside the school grounds so visitors are encouraged to park in surrounding streets. The hall is located inside the main entrance.
The event is free but don’t forget cash to reward these hard working performers. Seating is provided and some food stalls will be on-site. People are also welcome to bring their own food. This is a zero-waste event so please take any rubbish with you.
The event runs from 6pm to 9pm. Don’t miss your last chance to see the buskers while they’re in town!
