TAWA5 Best Suburban Destination

The sub­urbs. Love them or loathe them, they sur­round every city. And loathing the sub­urbs out of some sort of twist­ed inner-city-cen­tric impulse is pret­ty short-sight­ed – espe­cial­ly when you could be enjoy­ing the fol­low­ing:

TAWA5 Best Event

There’s always some­thing to do in this town we love, but these are the pick of the crop, and are cir­cled in red on our cal­en­dars. We’re count­ing the sleeps until next year’s events!

TAWA5 Best Late Night Experience

TAWA5 Best Shopping Experience

Stuff, glo­ri­ous stuff,  oh how we love to take you home with us.  These are the places we go to win­dow lick, tire kick and buy, buy, buy.  Love your work, peo­ple.

Some­times, we need to look up from that mon­i­tor and get our­selves some Vit­a­min D from the big solar dis­penser. Here are some of our favourite out­doors places:

What makes a cafe/bar/restaurant a place to you want to return to over and over again? Sim­ple. It is peo­ple, it is peo­ple, it is peo­ple. And these are some of the finest peo­ple in town.

We love this town. But, and we’d nev­er admit this to any­one not-from-here, there are a few things that we could do with in Welling­ton. Here’s some of them:

TAWA5 Best Regular Entertainment

As we know, Welling­ton is full of fun things to do, and on a reg­u­lar basis. Whether giv­ing us some­thing to eat, some­thing to groove to, or some­thing to yell about, these are the events that kept us com­ing back for sec­onds.
