Sunshine and sounds fill Smales Farm

For the second year running, the Takapuna Food, Wine & Music Festival drew a strong crowd who clearly love a good time. The sun shone fiercely as they enjoyed delicious fare from food trucks and beverages from craft beer breweries and boutique wineries. George FM DJs kept the beat up all afternoon, while the main stage featured artists Tiki Taane, Swamp Thing and Automatic80s, with Sneaky Sound System's uplifting sounds providing magical moments as the sun set. What a highlight of summer 2019 on the Shore!
