Anyone in Wellington over summer, here's an exhibition that might appeal.
And 2XS has a connection
In the "pre-filmed prize packages", if you took notice of the frequency on a radio (or similar prize) it was tuned to 828 or 92.2.
Hmmmm, coincidence ???
Filmed at the Avalon Television Centre in Lower Hutt, the original show was more than just a syndicated import—it was a proudly local production, staffed by locals and peppered with prize ads filmed along Te Awakairangi and in nearby parks. For kids growing up in the Hutt, like Holloway-Smith, it was glitzy, magical—the kind of show where winning a new car could change your life, and Lana’s outfits deserved their own fan club.
Step onto the dazzling set of The Wheel of Avalon, Bronwyn Holloway-Smith's bold new installation reimagining the iconic 1990s game show Wheel of Fortune New Zealand.
