"Hot Cross" Autumn Jazz

Featuring over 10 fantastic local artists and the return of Mere Boynton - proceeds from donations on the day will help to support Eastwoodhill Arboretum.
This is a totally new waterfront event for Gisborne and one that we hope will grow from year to year. Eastwoodhill has been fortunate to secure the support of some wonderful local artists and is delighted that Mere Boynton is again coming to Gisborne following the huge appreciation of her performance at the Eastwoodhill Long Lunch in February. What wonderful settings to enjoy some fabulous music together with delicious food and refreshments. We hope you were able to come along and experience Gisborne's first waterfront jazz festival on Easter Monday.
