Jody DireenThe Wanaka A&P Show is gearing up for another successful year, with its entertainment line-up now announced. Wanaka-based country-pop singer Jody Direen, captivating Kiwi magician Jonathan Usher and New Zealand's favourite covers group The BeatGirls will headline the acts performing on the main stage at the two-day event on March 8 and 9. Coming to the Wanaka Show for the first time is a team of Clydesdale horses from Erewhon Station in Canterbury. Wanaka show co-ordinator Jane Stalker said entertainment was an integral part of the annual show, which attracted 40,000 people from around the country. "Jody Direen, Anna van Riel and Angelo Georgalli all hail from Wanaka, so it's also exciting to be able to showcase some of our own homegrown talent.''
