A circus show featuring an 11-year-old contortionist is among new attractions at this year's Coca-Cola Easter Show.
Feifei Deng can bend her body into seemingly impossible manoeuvres, and is the youngest performer in the international Zirka Circus.
ASB showgrounds will host attractions until Monday, including a Hollywood Horrors ride, culturalperformances, a Friday and Saturday night concert featuring Dane Rumble and boyband Titanium, as well as the country's biggest indoor A&P show.
The city centre will also feature free games, rides and entertainment on Queens Wharf and Fanshawe St as part of the Easter Downtown event.
On the North Shore, Takapuna's Giant Easter Egg Hunt this afternoon is sure to keep the kids entertained.
