Once again Banks Peninsula will play host to the Akaroa French Fest in 2015. This biennial festival takes place this weekend, Friday 9 to Sunday 11 October and promises more Frenchness than ever before!
This year it’s fitting that the festival has an emphasis on the historical element of Akaroa, as we celebrate the 175th Anniversary of the first organised European settlement in August 1840. We are excited to be in collaboration with Beca Heritage Week and host the first key event in the festival programme.
