Autumn Heralds Festival of Colour
The Southern Lakes landscape is bursting into a blaze of red and gold, signaling the approach of the region's autumn festivals. The biennial Festival of Colour , a six-day Region wide celebration of the arts from 12- 17APR, offers theatre, dance, art, film and music of all genres. Easter weekend is gearing up to be a hit with the inaugural Queenstown Bike Festival 16- 25APR, an event with a programme that gives people of all ages and abilities the chance to try out Queenstown's world-class cycle tracks, trails, roads and scenery. The Arrowtown Autumn Festival , 29APR- 08MAY, provides a superb reason to get out and enjoy the relaxed pace and colours of the season. The historic goldmining village is renowned for its autumn colours and attracts many national and international artists and photographers. The annual festival celebrates Arrowtown's heritage with a community based events programme while the township itself, with quaint tree-lined streets, old miners' cottages, restored Chinese Village and Lakes District Museum, is fascinating to explore.
