The Takapuna Beach Business Association certainly knows how to create the ultimate summer day by the beach. The Takapuna Beach Summer Days Festival is an annual free family event with something for everyone. From 10 am on Saturday 18th January at the Takapuna Beach Reserve entertainment for kids included clowns, a magician, circus, theatre, face painting, sand castle building and obstacle courses. This was followed up with a more adult focus from 3pm with the classic covers bands Encore and Big Ticket; popular Alae rounded out the scorching day finishing at 7pm.
