The Women's Lifestyle Expo in Tauranga is often eagerly anticipated.
This year, following a year full of uncertainty around Covid-19 and mass gathering restrictions, organisers were more thrilled than ever to see the expo go ahead.
The event, held at Trustpower Baypark on Saturday and Sunday, gave local businesses the opportunity to set up stalls and engage with the community.
Expo director Linda Glasgow said there were about 140 exhibitors in attendance, which was similar to previous years.
