Highlights

Palmerston North (Palmy) in the Manawatu region is a university town, not touristy, so you will get a true taste of Kiwi culture within a friendly, young and "laid back" atmosphere. As a university town there is a great selection of cafes, pubs and restaurants catering to the student pallet and wallet. Theater and live music performances are scheduled around town, and popular student pubs come to life during the year, providing great entertainment. There are many hidden treasures in this area including luxurious country retreats, award-winning gardens, uncrowded championship golf courses, special interest museums, galleries, historical homes, and a host of adventures for adrenaline junkies. Throughout the year this lively region hosts many major national and international events - sporting, cultural, trade shows, conferences and exhibitions.
