Marton Harvest Festival - 2023

The Marton Harvest Festival is a day to let your hair down, picnic with friends and family, enjoy the music and celebrate the harvest season in true country fashion.
In addition to the usual festival activities, there will be pumpkin competitions including giant pumpkins, and of course a pumpkin pie competition. There will also be pumpkin bowling so be sure to get involved.
Marton is the home of Malteurop, a global leader in barley malting for beer, so if you are a home brewer make sure to get your entry into our very competitive home brew competition. (Check out our Facebook page for more information)

With over 160 quality stalls with everything from pickles and jams, paintings & pots, and garden ornaments to jewellery, food and pot plants you will find all the gifts you need for the family and treats you want for yourself.
With live music throughout the day, the festival's ambience will be a positive toe-tapping and knee-raising event.

Be sure to check out the vintage displays, these machines were instrumental in forging our great town and New Zealand’s rural identity.
