Tonight's first Dinner in The Domain at Papamoa has been postponed until tomorrow night to allow the ground to dry out.

Organiser Rachelle Duffy announced the postponement of the first of Papamoa's artisan food markets today.

The ground plan for Dinner in the Domain tomorrow.

'Chris and I have been working around the clock to make sure our launch is the best it can be,” says Rachelle in a message to customers and clients.

'But unfortunately the only part that is out of our hands is the weather - and it hasn't been that kind to us today.

'It is definitely coming right, but we have just been at the site and it's still wet under foot so we feel like people won't enjoy themselves as much as what they would if the weather was better.

'Our team has spoken to Tiki Taane and he really wants our launch to go off with a bang. He has decided to play tomorrow night, so we have decided to postpone the launch of Dinner in the Domain to FRIDAY NOVEMBER 7.”
