The Kaiapoi Band Rotunda is registered as a Category II historic place by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. In 2003 the band rotunda was moved from the Memorial Reserve in Raven Street to Trousselot Park in Charles Street, and is now used for occasions such as weddings and outdoor functions.

ABOUT KAIAPOI:
Kaiapoi is a river town in the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand, located close to the mouth of the Waimakariri River, and approximately 17 kilometres north of Christchurch.
The population of Kaiapoi is growing because of the expansion of Christchurch; indeed it can be classed as a 'bedroom' town for the city. Residing in Kaiapoi is attractive because of the balanced lifestyle; not only is the town a brief hop down the motorway from Christchurch, the immediate area offers great opportunities for water-sports (salmon fishing, beaches, rowing, jet skis, swimming) and general outdoor activities, be it 4 wheel driving, mountain biking, walking or running.

-- FAQ --
1. What camera do you use?
I use a Canon Powershot SX700HS and a GoPro Entry level.
2. Where do you get your music from?
Soundcloud and YouTube Audio Library are the two places where I source creative commons licensed music. I include a link to the content creator in the video description, but sometimes I do forget.
3. How much have you spent on your round the world trip so far?
This is continuously changing as I travel, when I finish my trip I will be revealing how much I spent and what areas cost me the most.
4. Will you create videos after your round the world trip?
Yes! Wherever I end up, be it back home in Yorkshire, England or another country, I will be uploading videos of my travels and exploring. Obviously, this might not be as regular as I upload now, but, new content will be uploading weekly.
5. What software do you use to edit your videos?
I use Adobe Premiere Pro, and occasionally, Adobe After Effects. I am still learning, but find it easier to use than other software.
