Bluff’s popular Night Market, combined with a fire and light show, will take place on July 11 as the nation celebrates the Matariki holiday weekend.
Jointly organised by the Thieves Alley Market Bluff team along with Bluff Promotions, the event continues to grow with a night market, live music, a good range of food trucks plus a fire and light show.
There will also be a "have a go" area for anyone wishing to try the fire poi (pictured).
An impressive muster of stalls featuring a range of wares will gather under cover for the evening with plenty of coloured lighting.
Live music will be provided by Nolan Henigan, alongside other entertainment and food offerings..
All this will be complemented by the fire and light show featuring fire poi, fire staff and decorated fire drums.
The evening runs from 6pm until 10pm and entry is via the Barrow St gate of the Bluff Oyster & Food Festival Site. A koha would be appreciated.
Last year’s event saw a good crowd who came from all over Southland to enjoy a special night.
