‘Tis the season to book your business event in Auckland 

Our business event insiders invite you to ‘Meet my Auckland’, with a range of videos uncovering their favourite venues, most exciting experiences, top treats and dining hotspots to inspire your next business event in Auckland.

Why Auckland this winter? 

With a diverse and growing range of venues, festivals and events that bring the city to life, autumn and winter 2024 are great times to host business events in Auckland.  

Autumn and winter in Auckland bring fewer crowds to the city, but plenty of opportunities. The dining and events scene is hot, and the city’s temperate climate means there’s plenty of prospects to get outdoors to explore the city’s islands, beaches, and native bush – no sweat. Add great shopping, museums and galleries, plus great value stays, and you’ll warm to the idea of bringing your event to the city off-peak. You can expect: 

Cooler rates

Greater off-peak availability means easier access for block bookings, with accommodation rates often lower than during the summer peak. 

Hotter events 

Schedule your business event to coincide with one of the other world-class celebrations taking place in the city to maximise the fun and boost delegates’ pre and post opportunities. 

  • Celebrate the Māori new year with the Matariki Festival (15-18 June) 
  • Watch the All Blacks face England at Eden Park (13 July)
  • Tune into the 13th World Choir Games (10-20 July) 
  • Experience the enchanting world of New Zealand wine at Winetopia (26-26 July)
  • Get a taste of Auckland’s dazzling dining options at Restaurant Month (1-31 August)
