Cityscape Christmas 2019
Bring on the party, Cityscapers! Addington Cup Week kicks off the season we love to love, and we are sooo ready. We bring you all the deets on the biggest week in Christchurch’s social calendar. Important information like what the judges are looking for in The Crossing Fashion Starts Here Best Dressed Competition and stuff about the racing as well, like pointers on how to pick a winner. And thanks to Callam Mitchell and his team at Team Event, Addington Cup Week is just the start of party season. We talk to the promoter putting the icing on Christchurch’s cake this summer. Ladi6 is just one of the fantastic artists he is bringing to town, and we check in with her as well (that’s her gorgeous self on the cover). The days are counting down to Christmas and with that comes the fun and the challenge of finding the perfect gift for all those on your ‘Nice’ list. We live to serve here at Cityscape, and so we have served up a curated Christmas gift guide brimming with ideas fresh and failsafe. Nailing that pressy list is the best reason possible for heading to the central city and exploring its retail hotspots, followed by a drink and some nibbles, of course. We shine our spotlight on what’s new in the inner city, from retail meccas to the hottest hospo hangouts. And if 2020 is looking like the year to put a ring on it, check out our feature on the amazingly creative community of jewellers we have in this city. As always, we also bring you what’s hot in cuisine, events, home and couture. Bring on the party, Cityscapers! Addington Cup Week kicks off the season we love to love, and we are sooo ready.

WHISPERER
Callam Mitchell heads Team Event, the
promoter putting the icing on Christchurch’s
cake this summer with a killer lineup of
festivals and events. He tells Cityscape about
his first event – a high school after-party when
he was 16 – and why he loves what he does.
T
ell us what Team Event has in store
for Christchurch this festival season?
We have our biggest summer coming
up, with five festivals locked in and a number
of headline shows. We’re kicking off with the
South Island Wine & Food Festival on
December 7. We then have the Great Kiwi
Beer Festival in January, Nostalgia Festival
and Electric Avenue in February, and the first
North Island edition of the Great Kiwi Beer
Festival in Hamilton in March. We are also
involved with the Summer’s Day Disco
concert in Hagley Park in January, and we
have one or two more announcements yet
to come. What are you most looking
forward to? We look forward to delivering
every event equally – you can’t help that with
the energy that is generated as we build
towards each festival date. We are especially
excited though about our new festivals,
Nostalgia and the Great Kiwi Beer Festival in
Hamilton – that will be our first North Island
festival. We’re also making some
enhancements to Electric Avenue with a
much larger site and capacity, which gives us
more creativity in the visual aspects and
installations. It’s been an exciting year for
Team Event – what have been the
highlights? The down season is a great time
of year for us to plan for growth, and we
often use this time to design new events.
Some of these concepts don’t make it off the
planning table, but this year we’re fortunate
to have two new ones come to fruition so far.
What attracted you to Nostalgia? Nostalgia
has a very good reputation, a great ethos,
and has had consistent growth each year
since its inception. It’s held in such a unique
venue and this point of difference makes it
very hard to replicate anywhere else. Will
you be breaking out the polyester and
platforms for A Summer’s Day Disco? I’ll
definitely be getting into the theme of the
event, and have a couple of great 70s-style
