New Zealand Post Book Awards - a glitzy Gala Event

The NZ Post Book Awards were presented last evening  at a glitzy and glamorous event at the Auckland War Memorial Museum.

MC Jennifer Ward-Lealand performed her task superbly and kept everything running like clockwork.

The full list of winners has been published of course but here for your interest are a number of photographs taken by the official event photographer Mark Tantrum.
