Want to go somewhere a bit different this winter? Whatever type of holiday you’re after, we have the destination for you. For festival fun try… Gore New Zealand’s country music capital comes to life in the winter months, with a host of events that draw visitors from all over the country down south. In June, toes will be tapping at the inaugural Tussock Country festival – a nine-day celebration of country music. Highlights include the iconic Gold Guitar Awards, where you can see the budding talent on display, and Top Paddock, a concert featuring a line-up of local country music stars. Entertainment will also be out in full force on the streets, as part of the “Freeze Ya Bits Off Busking” competition, culminating in a big street party.
