F.A.W.C! Taittinger Oyster & Whitebait Street Bar

The world-famous in Havelock North Advintage car park bar is back for summer F.A.W.C! 2025.
Expect sharply priced glasses of Champagne Taittinger and a street bar stocked with delicious Hawke's Bay wines.
Expect renowned Chef Martin Bosley to be shucking fresh oysters to order, while the Advintage crew bangs out old-school whitebait sandwiches.
Expect faster service this year and other food options while our DJ sets the mood. And expect to have a really great time.
This is a very casual, walk-up gig and always one of the biggest events on the F.A.W.C! calendar. Park up for the long haul or drop in to warm up before other F.A.W.C! events.
