Lyttelton Comes to the Party
The 2010 Festival of Lights in June was a celebration of Lyttelton’s vibrant, creative community featuring everything from upcycling clothes to wine tasting to live music to the festival's signature mask parade, street party and LPC fireworks.
The festival carried out PL's aims of raising awareness of sustainability, bringing the community together and most of all putting a sparkle into winter. Thank you to all our sponsors, supporters, volunteers, performers and participants who made this year's festival such a success! Click here to read more.
