Christmas Twilight Magic
The lamps are lit, the decorations are up and you are invited to spend the evening in the most beautiful 1850s village in New Zealand .... bring the family and a picnic and step back in time as costumed characters sing carols and prepare for Christmas.
Dont miss seeing the Howick Historical Village at night - its just magical.
Doors open at 6pm & close at 9pm.
The whole family will enjoy this special experience, a chance to wander the heritage village as dusk gently approaches - is there anywhere else you can do this in the middle of Auckland?
A very special Christmas event, the village is decorated and the costumed characters will show you through their special cottages and what they are doing to prepare for Christmas. The village is an especially lovely setting for an evening picnic or just bring fish and chips and sit by the pond.
Normal admission applies for the once a year chance to see the village by lamplight - you can even dress up if you want!
Free parking.
