The Local - Mt VictoriaThe first ever New Year’s Eve party centred on Courtenay Place went off, and organisers are hoping it will not be the last.
Courtenay Precinct says the inaugural Courtenay Carnival attracted between 5000 and 8000 people, and the family-friendly event is just the kind of thing the struggling Courtenay Place area needs.
Event manager Brett McCall says it was a ‘proof of concept’ for an event that could become a ‘fixture of the Wellington calendar.’
A report is going to council in the hope there will be a commitment to support it again in the future.
