Christchurch local news noon update for February 02, 2026. As we head into the afternoon, we are keeping a close eye on the forecast with severe weather watches issued for parts of the South Island, signaling a sharp end to the warm start of the week.

In local politics and housing, the City Council is considering a new hotline to crack down on rule-breaking Airbnb listings as the number of short-term rentals in Christchurch surges past four thousand. We also cover a sobering court case involving a Canterbury dairy farmer connected to organized crime, and share a cautionary tale regarding DIY will kits that has left a local estate in legal limbo.

On a lighter note, we take a look inside the new movement arts space at Parakiore where you can learn to fly on silks, and check in on Reefton, where a billion-dollar gold rush is bringing jobs back to the region.
