Parnell Rose Gardens, Dove-Myer Robinson Park
Parnell Festival of Roses is a fun-filled, free community event celebrating the Parnell Rose Garden in full bloom.
Festival-goers will experience an array of cultural performances, food trucks, craft stalls and activities for the whole whānau.
Some new features this year include a cutting swap for the public to trade their seedlings with other plant enthusiasts (don’t forget to bring yours!). There will also be a dedicated chill zone for children on the spectrum to take time out from the excitement of the rest of the event, run by Spectroom.
