New conference centre adds to Wero Whitewater Park

New conference centre adds to Wero Whitewater Park

Shooting the rapids could be just what the CEO ordered for work-weary corporate teams looking for an exhilarating challenge after a day around the conference table.

A contemporary conference centre beside the Wero Whitewater Park construction site in Auckland, promises corporates a work hard – play hard venue and a unique experience.

Scheduled to be flowing with thrills in 2016, New Zealand’s newest adventure hub will make white water experiences accessible for Aucklanders and visitors to the nation’s largest city.

The man-made white water park complements Vodafone Events Centre that has been home to tradeshows, the arts and education for more than a decade.

A new conference centre due to open by February 2016 provides greater event and conference flexibility, and guests can opt to use the white water park.

CEO of the unique complex, Richard Jeffery says a core principle was to develop a social enterprise model that invests the corporate dollar back into the development of Auckland’s young people.

At the roof shout for the conference centre, Richard explained how the white water park will provide outdoor education challenges to business teams as well as local school children.

“If we can get a kid or a conference delegate over a 4.5 metre waterfall, they will believe they can do anything,” he says.

“Conferences at Vodafone Events Centre or in the new centre will help fund our successful school and community programme that gives students authentic arts and outdoor education experiences.”

While corporates and their guests can enjoy slick hospitality provided by the quality event partners, they can also enjoy the feel good factor – knowing they are helping people set goals and achieve.

Wero Whitewater Park is scheduled to open in April 2016

About the conference centre

The new conference centre offers full functionality with movable walls that provide a number of configurations for break out breakout spaces.

Each space has good natural light as well as indoor/outdoor flow plus black out drapes when projection is required.

Being on ground level, the new venue complements the total facility to the adjacent arena and theatre.

Quality event partners – Austin’s Food Design Events and Multi Media Systems, further enhance the conference experience.

Great accessibility to main roads, motorways and Auckland Airport ensures getting to and from the venue is a breeze.
