An Aussie music festival-goer fell head over heels with Christchurch—and bought a $649K townhouse without even seeing it in person. Brian Kelly, in his 40s, snapped up the property near the new stadium after being charmed by the city’s vibe during the Electric Avenue festival. He’s got family in NZ and sees Christchurch as a perfect holiday base—and maybe an Airbnb rental spot. Real estate agents say this is a growing trend, with more outsiders snapping up central properties. Kelly’s already planning a return for next year’s festival—this might just be the start of his Kiwi chapter.
