Your weekend is a superheroSave your week, and take the time to do things that make you smile this weekend.

Take the time to do something you’d really love to do this weekend – we have a few suggestions for you.


Make this weekend your superhero. Saturday and Sunday are the days that can swoop in and save the rest of your week.


Here’s a few ideas for you to give your weekend superpowers. For further details on any of the events and activities, check out our What’s On guide. There’s a link below.


Learn street smarts. Street Smart is back in Cromwell this Saturday, helping to make young drivers safer and more aware on our roads.


The focus is on developing good decision-making strategies for safe driving, and it’s on at Highlands Motorsport Park.


Click, Happy, Live. This event is for aspiring photographers aged 10-22 years old. It’s a photography and well-being workshop rolled up in one. Be in quick - it’s on Saturday morning.


Concert in Naseby. Saturday night will see a festival which is not to be missed. The festival originally started in 2006 in Naseby by the late folk legend Phil Garland. Phil, with Warwick Brock, produced poetry, folk music, stories and folklore bringing the Otago and Maniototo High Country to life.


There’s an amazing lineup for Saturday night’s concert, and there will also be a session on Sunday at the Royal Hotel to round off the weekend.


Rock’n’Roll anyone? Dust off your rock’n’roll moves for a great Saturday evening in Cromwell, dancing to some good ol’ rock’n’roll brought to you by ‘Made in England’.


Why not give it a go? Make a day of it on Sunday. The arty and crafty of Alexandra are giving everyone a chance to watch, learn and have a go at a huge variety of crafts from spinning to cake decorating. 


It’s all free, and the youth trust will keep you going with a sausage sizzle.


The sun is forecast to shine over Central all weekend, so make the most of it!
