The dazzling Cromwell Street Party & Fireworks event returns on Sunday, 27th October 2024.

The annual event is designed to offer a positive community experience for both locals and visitors to kick-start the spring season, and is perfectly timed to coincide with the Labour Day long weekend.

The event is held in the charming surrounds of the Cromwell Heritage Precinct, with Lake Dunstan serving as an impressive backdrop for a family & friends gathering, whilst out-of-town visitors explore the venue’s nostalgic charms.

Festivities kick off at 5pm on the lawn of McNulty House with an energetic and engaging dance performance to get everyone in the party mood.

A fresh event layout will enhance the overall visitor experience, along with making the most of the quaint heritage precinct spaces.

The surroundings of McNulty House will be transformed into a foodie’s dream, to allow attendees to dine from a large variety of food trucks & trailers, whilst enjoying live entertainment and soaking up the vibe.

Guaranteed crowd-pleaser, Jonathan Usher will wow attendees with his sleight of hand and quick-witted banter.

In the kids zone, Ms Monarch will create skillful and whimsical masterpieces on the faces of young and old.

Little ones needing to burn off some extra energy, are invited to join in the group hula hoop & juggling sessions, while the bouncy castles provide hours of fun and laughter.

New to the event will be the opportunity for children & adults to engage and collaborate in a unique and expressive work of art for future display and emphasising the connection between community and place.

FLAME Entertainment will once again bring the magic to the event, with their roving and fantastical characters, and for those who dare, The Scouts Haunted Hall guarantees an abundance of scares.

ReSounding, Gina Bina and more will keep the crowd moving & grooving until daylight fades, perfectly timed for a mesmerising twilight aerial performance, before joining the countdown lake-side as the night sky illuminates with an enthralling display of fireworks over the Kawarau River at 8.45pm, or as soon as it’s dark enough.
