Bringing light to darkest nights

Bringing light to darkest nights

Last night, the Dunedin Midwinter Carnival showcased a mesmerizing array of glowing creatures, including a fire-breathing dragon, a playful moa, and giant butterflies.

Xanthe Naylor, the carnival event manager, anticipated a turnout of around 4000 people yesterday evening and another 4000 tonight at First Church, despite the inclement weather.

“I believe Dunedin can handle a bit of drizzle, we’re quite accustomed to it.”

The festival took place in the heart of winter to “bring light into the darkest time of the year.”

“It’s chilly, wet, and rainy, and sometimes you just need something to motivate you to go out.

“It unites the community and brings warmth and enchantment to the city center.”

The event featured numerous roaming performers and enchanting displays of mystical creatures crafted by local artists.

The lanterns were specially designed to endure the rain.

Attendees could gather around a brazier or stroll through the church, where performances were held at the altar and a butterfly house exhibit known as the “fluttering meadows” was on display.

Local resident Lauren Pearce brought her son Lucas to the carnival and described it as incredibly exciting.

It was their family’s first time at the event, and they were eager to explore all the exhibits and sample some of the delectable food offerings.
