Our team travelled to the West Coast recently to catch up with Development West Coast, Greymouth High School and Productive People to connect them to the existing programmes we are delivering to support young people on the coast to thrive, and ask what more could we be doing? Timely conversations to be having as future investment is needed in vocational pathways on the coast.

Thanks to Bowater Motor Group they had a new Hilux to explore the coast with.

We are so happy to be supporting the Nelson Arts Festival for another year. In fact Bowaters and Bowater Toyota specifically have been helping the festival for longer than anyone can pin point in our own records - it has just always been a part of the community support matrix. Get amongst it again this year locals - it is so important we support the Arts in general.

It’s a feverish Saturday Night singalong in Whakatū!

BATTLE CHORUS – DISCO
Nelson Centre of Musical Arts | Sat 24 Oct | 8.30pm

The crowd-favourite BATTLE CHORUS is back, and this time it’s DISCO!

This wildly entertaining social sing-along experience transforms the audience into the stars of the show. Under the guidance of acclaimed Aotearoa musicians Jason Te Mete and Jodes Langdon, you’ll be divided into two teams, learn the choruses of some iconic Disco classics, then battle it out in an unforgettable sing-off packed with rhythm, nostalgia, and glitter.

No singing experience is required, just a willingness to join in, have a laugh, and celebrate the power of music to bring people together. Whether you’re a seasoned performer or a shower-singing superstar, BATTLE CHORUS is all about community, connection, and collective fun.

Dust off your flares, sequins, and platform shoes, because disco dress-ups are strongly encouraged. With bragging rights, the BATTLE CHORUS crown, and a prize for best dressed all on the line, it’s time to boogie your way to victory.

Don’t miss the beat! This very popular event has limited capacity and will sell out!

Supported by: Bowater Group Ltd

Over the 80 years Bowaters has been providing the region with inspirational vehicles there have been a lot of epic photo shoots. These vehicles have all ended up on driveways and in garages of the region, bringing a smile and an extra beat of the heart the moment the key turns. What does the future hold? More vehicles that will take you places, and more moments converted into lifelong memories.
