Carbo Party

Thursday 15 January - 6.30pm

Lake Wanaka Centre

The Carbo Party is a great place to meet old friends and make new ones. After a warm welcome from the Challenge Wanaka team, last year's winners will say a few words followed by a few important race announcements. All athletes have free entry into this great carbo-loading experience. Friends and family are very welcome and tickets are available for $15 including plenty of carbohydrates and non-alcoholic drinks.

Tickets can be ordered on your entry form, at registration or by contacting the Challenge Wanaka office on +64 (0)3 443 2700 or E-mail: event@challenge-wanaka.com

Awards Brunch

Sunday 18 January - 11.30am

Lake Wanaka Centre

Following feedback from athletes, we have changed the timing of the awards ceremony to earlier in the day to allow more athletes to attend and celebrate their achievements. Each athlete has a ticket included in their entry fee and you can buy extra tickets for family and friends for just $10. Please note that due to the new timing, the format will differ from previous years and will not feature a full sit down meal. Instead you can enjoy a freshly cooked bacon buttie off the BBQ with tea, coffee and orange juice.

Due to space limitations, tickets are strictly on a first come, first served basis for friends and family and may be limited on the day. We recommend you order them in advance, either on your entry form, at registration or by contacting the Challenge Wanaka office on +64 (0)3 443 2700 or E-mail: event@challenge-wanaka.com
