Kiwi music collective Leisure are joining the Auckland Philharmonic Orchestra for a concert this Friday. And if it's anything like last year's APO collaboration for the David Bowie Tribute in October, it will be absolutely spectacular.

It's all going down this Friday night from 9pm at the Auckland Town Hall. Tickets are just $55 if you buy them now or $60 on the door. See you there!

Because summer has ended it means you can absolutely have free rein when it comes to overindulging, am I right? One hundred percent. And what better way to indulge that with some good old fashioned (free) ice-cream?
