It’s a funny time of year. For one thing, Summer is pretty much over, or at least the best of it. But on the plus side we have Easter, which offers us the longest long weekend of the year, and the last before winter takes hold. With Good Friday and Easter Monday off, and a weekend sandwiched in between, that’s four days of freedom to do whatever you like!

Up steps a special NZME event, The Longest Long Weekend, which is here to help you be prepared for four days of fun, with offers from retailers, restaurants and more all over the country.

We know you like to get about and spend Easter at the bach, with rellies, or just far from home. That’s why we’ve sorted the event by region to let you grab experiences wherever in NZ the Longest Long Weekend takes you. Within each area, you’ll be able to find a great many things to eat, see and do at some point over that extra long weekend of March 25th-28th. Look out for a Facebook competition this week, and you could win one of the deals in the destination where you are headed.

So make the most of it, and get prepared today at longestlongweekend.co.nz
