Top Town first screened on New Zealand television in 1976, the original Top Town competition took place at a different town each week with all competitions taking place on a local sports field. The show made a return in 2009 but due health and safety regulations the new competition had to take on water with all teams now competing at Jellie Park in Christchurch.
