The Central App has a new event listing system to make it easier to share what’s going on with others in the community.

From today (Monday May 26) a koha (donation) is how What's On listings will work.

People can complete an online form, and pay what they think it’s worth to be in The Central App’s What’s On Guide.

The Central App director Vicki McLean said the koha system would encourage more businesses and groups to upload events.

“By paying what you think it’s worth to list, you’re supporting our local team of seven who work hard to produce hyper local news, relevant to you each day, while getting the word out about your event.

“Getting more eyeballs across your event, might just nudge people out of hibernation and spark some great connections for your organisation or business.”

As winter approaches the Roads is up dated each morning by 6.30am, based only on trusted sources, so if you are travelling it’s useful to check in there before hitting the roads in Central. 

The Central App is working on guides for the two upcoming long weekends Kings Birthday and Matariki so keep an eye out for those, they’ll contain opening hours and tips on activities. 

As local government elections approach the Elections button will relaunch soon with relevant local content including candidate profiles, key dates and what you need to know.
