Introduction 

New Zealand Maritime Museum Hui Te Ananui a Tangaroa is the place where the stories of people and the sea are preserved, shared, and explored. New Zealand is one of the most maritime nations in the world and the story of every one of us is affected by the sea – through immigration, trade, design, innovation, and leisure. The museum is a hub for all these stories. They are expressed in the galleries, through programmed events, special exhibitions, heritage sailings and more.

The picturesque, centrally located venue in Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour is the perfect place to host your function, product launch, wedding, or conference. With multiple spaces to choose from and on-site catering available, the venue operation partners at Sero will help bring your event to life.

 

All enquiries for events at The New Zealand Maritime Museum will be managed by the NZMM team and their venue operation partner, Sero.
