Good morning Sunners and welcome to Saturday. With a ton of awesome events taking place in and around the city, make sure you get out there and enjoy them today!

It'll be a good idea to keep one eye on the hills and the other on the skies because The Tauranga Medieval Faire and the Classics of the Sky Tauranga City Airshow are both taking place today.

Tauranga Boys' College Southey Field will become a scene of utter bloodshed and medieval mayhem with the return of The Tauranga Medieval Faire today, from 10am.

Co-organiser Andria Goodliffe says entry is free, although there will be traders' stalls to barter at, along with medieval activities.

'We have miniature siege artillery, which should be quite interesting, and the archery range for people to have a go. You might even get to shoot a knight, if they're brave enough”

Today's main events begin, including a play, beard competition, and re-enactment of the Battle of Grathe Heath. There's also plenty of free activities including dancing, live music, activities on the village green, and a market traders to peruse.

While two former Royal New Zealand Air Force Strikemaster jet trainers will be one of the many feature at today's Classics of the Sky Tauranga City Airshow which takes place at Tauranga City Airport, from 1pm.

The fun picnic-style family event taking place at Tauranga Airport will feature jets like the BAC Strikemaster and T6C-Texan trainer aircraft flown by the Royal New Zealand Airforce, plus classic, sports, gliders and RC model aircraft.

'The 2016 afternoon and evening event was so successful we opted to hold the show annually, alternating headline aircraft and an associated event,” say Tauranga City Airshow organisers.

'People are able to bring their own picnic or purchase food and drink on site. Classic Flyers will have a bar available to purchase alcohol but eventgoers are not permitted to bring their own alcohol on site.”

Fast land based vehicles will also be on display all afternoon, with races of some of the world's fastest production super motorbikes, dragsters and hot rods to be held on the airport's 1.8km runway. The 2017 Nissan GT-R 35 is also expected to be making an appearance.

'There is plenty of free parking available on site, with public access in Seawind Lane via the airport end of Jean Batten Drive.”

The Classics of the Sky Tauranga City Airshow takes place at Tauranga Airport on Jean Batten Drive in Mount Maunganui on Saturday, January 21, 2017. Gates open 1pm.

Tickets cost $25 for adults and $15 for children, with discounts available for TECT cardholders when purchased from the Classic Flyers gift shop. Tickets also available online at: www.eventfinda.co.nz.
