Swannanoa Country Fair

North Canterbury’s iconic country fair with plenty of quality stalls, food & entertainment for the whole family.

Originally starting out as a humble boot sale in 1998, this family-friendly community event now attracts thousands of people from all over the South Island and is one of the most popular and fun days in the regional event calendar.

There is a huge range of quality craft and trade stalls, school plant stall, a massive white elephant sale, plenty of games and rides for the children, delicious food and refreshments as well as all day entertainment, providing a great day out with your family and friends.

The entire fair effort is put together by the school and its local community, with all profits given back into the schools nominated projects.
