@leighelse Brand new seating has been built to replace the original. Set up for another hundred years or till the sea comes in. In fact, it was sea until the port was formed on reclaimed land. Free concerts for 2 weeks is pretty rare these days though.

We moved to #Timaru at the end of my 1968 third form year. One of the few positives for me that summer was the #CarolineBay #carnival, an institution that's been running (almost) non-stop for more than a century. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/481461/rebuilt-arena-unveiled-in-time-for-start-of-caroline-bay-carnival
