Venue

Auckland's Viaduct Basin is centrally located with easy access from both road and sea. There is ample parking with the added bonus of convenient ferry rides to and from the North Shore. Major bus and train terminals are close by.

This area is already popular with the residents of the exclusive, harbour-side apartment developments that surround it. Restaurants and bars have a steady clientele from the numerous neighbouring hotels, including the Auckland Hilton, Auckland's only 5 plus-star property. The Viaduct Basin is also a popular meeting place and point of reference for the Free Independent Travellers (FIT) market.

The Auckland Wine & Food Festival has become an annual event, as popular as any other event on the Auckland "must do" calendar. Such events include: the internationally-recognised Round The Bays Fun Run, beloved Teddy Bear's Picnic and the increasingly popular Lantern Festival.
