This year Aucklanders can kiss goodbye to a Christmas Eve spent at the mall in search of the perfect gifts for fussy loved-ones thanks the BIG little City’s first-ever Christmas Gift Guru.
On a mission to solve even the toughest gift-buying decisions, from November 24th until December 24th Charlotte Rust (the Christmas Gift Guru) will hit the streets of the central city armed with a list of well-known Kiwi’s to buy for, with the task of sourcing the best gifts for them in the BIG little City.

The Christmas Gift Guru’s suggested gifts, and the lucky kiwi celebs who she is shopping for, will be featured on biglittlecity.co.nz providing Aucklanders with optimum Christmas shopping inspiration as well as the chance to create and win their very own Christmas wish list from the hundreds of gifts recommended by the Guru.

Alex Swney, CEO, Heart of the City says, “This Christmas in the BIG little City we plan to turn the often daunting idea of Christmas shopping into a series of events that Aucklanders won’t want to miss”.
He goes on to say “The shopping inspiration insight revealed by our Christmas Gift Guru over the coming weeks will give people even more reason to visit the central city for all their Christmas shopping needs, and allow them to embrace an Auckland Christmas, BIG little City style”.

Along with the Christmas shopping, this Christmas in the city there will be plenty to see and do for all. Kicking off with the famed Farmers Santa Parade on November 27th Aucklanders will also have the opportunity to grab their friends and family to visit the Aotea Square for ‘Christmas in the Square’ with a schedule that includes: Random Acts, Christmas Markets and live performances from community groups such as gospel choirs, steel pan bands and dance groups all celebrating the festive season.

Finally, by simply visiting biglittlecity.co.nz this Christmas Aucklanders can create their own wish list from the gifts suggested by the Gift Guru, share it with their friends through social media and be in to win one of five $1000 Christmas wish lists thanks to Gem Visa.
