The St. Bathans Community Association is a passionate group of local residents dedicated to preserving the unique charm, history, and vitality of the beautiful village of St. Bathans. Nestled in Central Otago, this close-knit community works together to maintain the town’s heritage buildings, support local events, and foster a welcoming environment for visitors and residents alike.
The Association hosts a range of community initiatives, including heritage preservation efforts, social gatherings, and seasonal events like the St. Bathans Country Fête. Proceeds from this fête help fund local improvements, community projects, and the ongoing care of this historic settlement. Once a thriving gold rush town, St. Bathans is now a peaceful escape filled with stories and character.
By attending the fête, you’re not just enjoying great local food, crafts, and entertainment, you're supporting the heart of St. Bathans.
