              Against the backdrop of wild thyme and schist rock, Alexandra hosts               one of the most diverse festivals in Central Otago.                                                   

              The Thyme Festival is held at a particularly beautiful time of the year,               with remnants of snow on the surrounding mountains, clear skies                                and the fragrance of wild thyme on the breeze.

              The nine day festival each November features many events and                               workshops related to the arts, culture and the environment. The                                   theme for 2009 is ‘Cherishing Our Environment’ - time to reflect on                               and explore our past values and future possibilities in our unique                           surroundings.
