From Nights, 10:17 pm on 26 March 2024

Every week, for 25 years, a group has eaten dinner together on a Tuesday.

Started in Wellington in 1999 and hosted in kitchens across the city, Tuesday Night Dinners has been open to absolutely anyone, to share a meal, a glass of wine, and stimulating conversation.

People have met lifelong friends and even future spouses at the dinners, which are marking their 25th anniversary today.

Founder and organiser of Tuesday Night Dinners Mike Eastwood speaks to Emile Donovan.
