Celebrate the first day of Summer the right way at the Christmas is Coming Carnival being held on the beautiful grounds of Mercy Hospice in Ponsonby!

There is a range of food, stalls and exciting activities such as a giant inflatable obstacle course and bouncy castle. Mercy promises you a fun afternoon out and a great opportunity to get in some early shopping before the Christmas rush!

The afternoon also boasts fantastic music with something for Mum, Dad and the kids.

Not ready to go home? Wander down the hill to see the incredible opening of the Franklin Rd lights!
