Idol star to Party in the Park in Pukekohe

A young pop star with the world at his feet is on his way to Pukekohe.
Stan Walker, the Kiwi who won Australian Idol last year will be the lead act for Pukekohe's Party in the Park a new event on the Franklin calendar at Bayer Growers Stadium on Saturday March 27.

The chart-topper will perform his first full length concert in New Zealand,
which will include his No.1 hit Black Box, in Pukekohe where he will be joined by a host of musical talents to suit all tastes.
The line-up will include New Zealand's top female group, The Lady Killers, rock-and-roll icon Tom Sharplin and local band Moss.

The Party in the Park will also feature a secondary school Counties Manukau's Got Talent competition.
Secondary schools in the region will be invited to submit their top entrants from their own talent competitions, who will then perform at the event to try and win a trophy.

Promoted as a day with something for every age group, the event will start at 3pm and run until about 9pm.

There will be rides and activities for the whole family, as well as food and beverage outlets. People are encouraged to bring a blanket and sit on the field or embankment and enjoy the show.
Counties Manukau Rugby's business development manager Phil Kingsley Jones said the union is excited to bring an event of this calibre to Franklin.

``If we get the support there is no reason why we could not host more shows of this nature. It is great for Counties Manukau Rugby Football Union to put on such a fantastic event for the people of Franklin and surrounding areas to enjoy.''

Proceeds from the Party in the Park will go towards an irrigation system for the stadium, which will benefit sports like rugby, athletics and the many other users that Bayer Growers Stadium will be catering for.
