Have fun at Kāpiti Food Fair

The Kāpiti Food Fair will be held next month in Paraparaumu, featuring a lineup of homegrown talent and a smorgasbord of eats. It is due to be held next Saturday, December 3 at the Mazengarb Reserve with gates being open from 10am to 4pm. ‘‘We’re thrilled to provide a lineup of homegrown talent this year,’’ said Helene Judge, co-owner of the fair. This year’s headline act is Kiwi country-pop singer Jody Direen and her band. Areas included in this year’s festival include a kid zone, a zeal zone to showcase youth talent, a ‘‘United Nations of Food’’, a massive off-licence liquor zone, as well as the main stage area. Kāpiti Food Fair was established in 2008 as a community event with humble beginnings. It is now privately owned and operated in a business partnership.
