The Lotus-Heart will hold a candlelit Earth Hour evening this Saturday from 6 to 10pm with accoustic music. Outside in the Square, as part of Earth Hour, a free outdoor movie, The 11th Hour, is being screened in Cathedral Square on Saturday 29 March, 2008, at 8.00 to 10.00pm.

On Saturday, March 29, 2008, Christchurch will join cities around the world to take a stand against climate change.

Created to take a stand against the greatest threat our planet has ever faced, Earth Hour uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming.

On January 7th 2008 The Lotus-Heart opened a second location on level one at 15-31 Cathedral Square, Christchurch providing a spacious dining room with great views out over the Square and a unique atmosphere. The original Lotus-Heart remains as a cafe at 595 Colombo Street, Monday to Friday 8am-4pm, with the new location being primarily a restaurant. Fast cafe-style service will be available over weekday lunchtimes at both locations to cater especially for those on short lunch hours.
