Everything Kāpiti – your weekly update

10 Dec 2025

What a fantastic event the Kāpiti Food Fair was on Saturday. The great turnout and variety of stallholders highlighted just some of the awesome things happening across our district.

Other events coming your way include Christmas on the Coast this Saturday, and Santa Splash at all our pools on Saturday 20 December. It's good news for golf lovers and Kāpiti alike, with the NZ PGA Championship coming to Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club in February next year.

Our fantastic construction crews will be taking a well-deserved break over the Christmas period. Make sure to check out the dates that construction pauses near you.

Summer is looking good for Kāpiti, so get amongst it, and enjoy our pools, parks, beaches, and libraries!
