Festive spirit and joy took over the National Auditorium last night as Leilani Sadaraka, along with her daughters Vaihere and Hinania, and niece Hereata, joined the crowd at the annual Rotaract Christmas in the Park event.

The event, a favourite among families, featured a vibrant array of food vendors, children’s activities like Santa’s corner, face-painting, and bouncy castles, and lively entertainment from Christmas carollers and Filipino performers. Even New Zealand music legend Tiki Taane, scheduled to perform at Trios tonight, delighted the audience with a surprise appearance. The Christmas in the Park event was supposed to close with three-minute fireworks last night. BYRON BROWN/23121430
