A Massive Easter Weekend for Wellington and Nomads Capital
It was a very busy Easter weekend at Nomads Capital backpackers youth hostel. Along with it being a long weekend and everyone taking the chance to relax and party it up, Wellington also hosted a series of international concerts.
Kicking off on Thursday night were the Smashing Pumpkins and Queens of the Stone Age rocking the TSB Bank Arena. A few of our infamous Nomads Capital long term backpacker guests managing to sneak in and enjoy the show free of charge in true backpacker style.
Saturday night was the first night of the two night Rock 2 Wellington Concert which included legends such as Alice Cooper, KISS, Lordi, Poison, Whitesnake and Ozzy Osbourne. Also on Saturday one of New Zealand’s oldest cricket grounds housed Sandwiches Summerset, a 12 hour concert with many New Zealand and international dub bands, including New Zealand’s Shape Shifter and Wellington’s own The Blackseeds.
On Sunday morning there were many tired faces and sore throats as the Wellington backpackers made the most of the free coffee and tea at Nomads Capital backpacker youth hostel to revitalize themselves before doing it all again on Sunday night.
After a big weekend of concerts, partying and not much sleep the backpackers here at Nomads Capital backpackers hostel settled in to a quiet week of behaving themselves and early nights…
Yeah right!
