13 - 21 November 2010

Thyme Festival originated from a community desire to celebrate the beauty of the Central Otago landscape in November when the wild thyme blooms. In 2002 the festival evolved into a week celebrating the arts and sustainability with the theme of Cherishing Our Environment. That theme is reflected in the week-long workshops, working artists, demonstrations, walks, talks, performances and exhibitions. On Saturday, a joyful Celebration Evening is followed the next day by a market and other activities to end our salute to the wild thyme in Central Otago’s unique environment.
