It's Time to Celebrate; It's Time to Party!

22 NOVEMBER 2012

While the weather may not have been the best, the atmosphere inside the Carlton Hire Group Ltd. Corporate Marquee during the ‘Taste of Auckland’ Festival was nothing but festive.

The 'Taste of Carlton' was an exclusive event put on by MediaPA, on behalf of Carlton Hire Group Ltd., to celebrate their past year of success and the success of their clients. It was also a great opportunity to acknowledge the hard work put in by their staff, suppliers and associates.

Suzanne Young, Managing Director of Carlton Party Hire Group Ltd., said the event was an ideal way to thank everyone who had been a part of the Carlton journey and show their appreciation.

“It’s important to acknowledge and thank everyone who is a part of this team,” Suzanne said.

Some of the afternoon’s highlights included performances by J-Geeks, who featured on New Zealand's Got Talent and Josh Leys, a hip hop producer and talented musician from Auckland.

David Babich, from Babich Wines, was the guest speaker and gave away a selection of his 2011 vintage Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to several lucky guests.

The event was MC’d by Phillip Quay, from MediaPA, and attended by a large number of Carlton’s suppliers, staff and clients. Also making an appearance was Liam McFarlane, a promising young golfer from Rotorua and Peter Urlich, a member of NZ rock band Th’ Dudes.

'Taste of Carlton' was an entertaining and relaxed afternoon enjoyed by all who attended, with several guests offering rave reviews:

“Thanks for the awesome day out, incredible hospitality,” (Mitre 10).

“I thoroughly enjoyed myself and was impressed with the setup this year; great work,” (Restaurant Association).

“It was one of the best afternoons I have had in a while and well needed, I can assure you. Thank you once again for all the work your team did for the business awards,” (Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development).
