Akarua Arrowtown Autumn Festival
Celebrate the best of the south with the annual Akarua Autumn Festival.
As the Akarua Autumn Festival enters its 30th year, what's not to love?
Visitors and locals alike come in droves to soak up the unmatched Arrowtown surrounds, atmosphere and entertaining attractions, including the Arrow Miners Band and the Buckingham Belles Can Can.
Many long-held festival traditions like the Art Exhibition, the Grand Variety Concert, the Vintage Cars, the Shotover Country Music Concert and the Arrowtown Entertainers Musical, remain a drawcard for punters, while the Pie, Pint and Pinot event boasts a hearty line-up of gourmet pies, locally-brewed craft beer and a stunning range of wines from Akarua Winery.

We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
