About the event

In 2009 we delivered an exciting programme of events to celebrate Auckland Anniversary Weekend in partnership with Heart of the City.
With the Auckland Seafood Festival, live performances and fireworks over four days, there was plenty to see and do.
The Viaduct Harbour will come alive once again in 2010 to celebrate Auckland Anniversary Weekend.
