COVID UPDATE

Electra Business Breakfast is delighted with the Government’s decision to remove the Traffic Light System and to allow us to make personal choices on mask wearing. If circumstances were to change and Covid prevented us from operating, we will reschedule first and then transfer or refund tickets as needed. We encourage being fully boosted for you, your whānau, your community, and please don’t attend if you are feeling unwell. We look forward to seeing you all soon.
