NEW ZEALAND’S ONLY VICTORIAN TOWN
All Contents © 2011 The Oamaru Whitestone Civic Trust
The Oamaru Victorian Heritage Celebrations is one of the stunning Waitaki region’s biggest annual events. Its a week when Oamaru celebrates its heritage and has huge fun doing so. A week where everyone is welcomed and given the rare chance to experience all the sights, sounds, tastes, and activities of a bygone era. Expect the men’s beards to be handsomely groomed, the women’s corsets fastidiously tightened and much merriment to be had by young and old alike.
