My New Favourite (MNF) was started in 2008 to rev-up the entertainment options in Franklin. The company has hosted events for:
Caley Wilson, who runs MNF, went to school in Patumahoe and Pukekohe. He studied marketing and PE at Otago University, and then worked in international thoroughbred marketing roles in Auckland and London. While in London he put on a show for Dave Dobbyn - and decided that was good fun. Horses took a bit of a back seat after that. Caley has also worked on some of the UK's biggest sports events like Nike's RunLondon, Sports Relief and the London Youth Games.
In September 2010, My New Favourite will do shows with Don McGlashan and Matt Bodman in Pukekohe and Tauranga. The company also hosts private events.
The Franklin district had an estimated population of 61,000 in 2009. That was up from 48,000 in the 1996 census. The largest town in the region is Pukekohe (roughly 19,000), with Waiuku (5,500) and Tuakau (3,000) next in size. Depending on the mood of the southern motorway, Pukekohe can be as little as a 35min trip from central Auckland.
