Wētā Workshop Unleashed

When the conference programme finishes for the day, the evening event can become one of the most memorable parts of a business trip. Auckland offers event planners a remarkable choice of unique dinner venues where delegates can dine, network and experience something distinctly different.

Eden Park, New Zealand's National Stadium, offers event planners an opportunity to give delegates after-hours access to one of Auckland's best-known sporting venues.

Make the Evening Part of the Destination

Auckland's unique dinner venues demonstrate how an evening event can become much more than a meal. By combining dining with entertainment, culture, sport, wildlife, aviation or movie magic, event planners can give delegates another reason to remember their time in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.

For conference organisers, incentive planners and business event professionals, these distinctive venues offer creative ways to make the evening programme an integral part of the Auckland experience.
