Dean and Groove FM provided the sounds at the Island Bay Festival today. For once the weather gods smiled a sunny 23 degrees with light winds. Several 1000 locals turned up to share the day of food, fun and entertainment, including the traditional Greek blessing of the fishing boats.
The Island Bay Festival started in 1985 and is one of Wellington's longest-running festivals. Showcasing the talent and diversity of the South Coast, this annual 2-day summer festival is held every February.
