Here are five awesome things to do in Auckland this week.
All Week
Bondie In The City
Remember when Takapuna was blessed with Bondie Designer Cupcakes last year? Well, you folks on the other side of the bridge can get excited because this cupcake store is popping up in Ponsonby Central for a whole week! There will be a range of their freshly baked goodies on offer, including lemon curd, chocolate salted caramel, chocolate raspberry and blueberry cupcakes, as well as a range of tempting Valentine’s Day specials. Get the deets here.
Camping
Nope, we’re not talking about tents and the great outdoors. As part of the Auckland Pride Festival, Park and Sainsbury present Camping, their super camp comedy creation. Centered around two issue-ridden couples who go on a secluded camping retreat, you’ll be lol’ing your way into the working week. With shows on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, it sold out at the International Comedy Festival so is guaranteed to be a hoot! Lock in your tickets here.
