We are excited to announce a new venue for the Repco Power Cruise on Thursday 27th March 2025.
We’ve been working closely with the Thames-Coromandel District Council to close a large area of the airfield at Paunanui Beach for the 2025 Repco Power Cruise. Are we excited? HELL YES!!!
We took the Festival to Pauanui for 3 years 2007-2009 so it’s great to be returning to a new venue. The Pauanui Airfield is a GREAT location with easy access, the Pauanui Club is next door and the shopping centre is a 5 minute walk away.
We have PLENTY of entertainment planned with great prizes to give way – it’s going to be a MAGIC day.
