A Big Day out

For those who fancy enjoying some music and want to do so in the sun, the southern hemisphere offers the weather and New Zealand, the venue.

Taking place on January 19th, the huge touring music festival begins across the Tasman sea from its native Australia in the Mount Smart Stadium in the city of Auckland.

Featuring artists like Kasabian, My Chemical Romance and The Mint Chicks, the enormous concert hosts a wide range of acts from Australia and New Zealand, as well as the rest of the world.

Tickets for the event cost NZ$110 (£38).

Apart from the gig, Auckland offers many attractions for visitors.

It has a stunning location, with two harbours and enviable lifestyle, with a warm climate and excellent al fresco eating.

Auckland also makes a good base to tour New Zealand's North Island, taking in such natural wonders as the Rotorua and Taupo geysers, famous for their bubbling hot mud, or the picturesque Twin Coast Discovery Highway.
