Freedom campers have relocated from a car park in New Brighton to another one in Waimairi Beach, Christchurch.

Freedom campers forced out of a Christchurch car park after complaints of loud, violent behaviour have found a new home.

Short-stayers living in a New Brighton car park were kicked out by the Christchurch City Council on Saturday.

Residents in the area had complained about noise, rubbish, and threats of violence from campers, who were using freedom-camping laws to live in the council-owned spot.

On Friday, police spoke to a German camper after he brandished a knife during an argument with a Fairfaxphotographer.

Up to 20 campers left the car park when the council put up 'no camping' signs on Saturday.
