Holy Knit Batman! It’s The Southern Cross Knitting Circle! 

Come join in – from beginners to experienced knitters. Now you can wile away the evening hours, stitch and bitch or flip the script and give Grandma a cardie next Christmas. Everyone welcome, young or old, blokes or ladies. Just bring down some wool and needles.

Hosted by the lovely Katharine from 2 Minute Needles, there'll always be someone there to show you some tricks and teach you the bits and bobs of knitting.

Monday nights at 7pm in our Lounge, first area on the right as you walk in the front doors.

Like a challenge? Rock in on a Tuesday night to our awesome general knowledge quiz, run by quizmaster Nick Fone on the mic and Dr Vesuvious on the organ. Vouchers and spot prizes are up for grabs! 

Whether you need to kick your night off with some intellectual stimulation or tire your brain out before bedtime, it’s a promise that choice times are to be had and entry is free for everyone. 

The quiz kicks off at 8pm and goes until around 10pm, so cruise in and grab a table. Easy.

This lovely wee event happens at ours every Wednesday from 6.30pm. Local singer-songwriters come along and literally sing for their supper – they entertain our guests, we make sure they’re fed!

If you’re keen to kroon for your kai, flick Ruby an email on kroon@thecross.co.nz.

A scampish folk troubadour dreaming of high seas and low trees. Melding wiry country jangle with frail folk balladeering, ... more Miles Calder wins your heart and woos your dancing shoes.

He draws inspiration from folk, country and blues back catalogues, as well as the great modern songwriters, such as Bob Dylan, Ryan Adams, Tom Waits, Beck, Townes Van Zandt, Neil Young and more.
