The Axis Awards are a celebration of Aotearoa’s advertising creativity. As such, the 2025 event required a premium space that could accommodate a large awards ceremony and seated dinner for 538 guests.

We spoke to Simon Lendrum, CEO of the Commercial Communications Council, about the recent Axis Awards held in March this year. Follow the link below to discover how one of our venues elevated the event experience - turning a prestigious night into something truly spectacular.

We were honoured to host the New Zealand Society of Association Executives (NZSAE) Matariki Lunch at The Civic last week. As premium partners of NZSAE, supporting this event is particularly meaningful to us - celebrating Matariki together is a powerful reminder of the value of connection, reflection, and shared purpose within our sector.

We're also proud to have attended the Wellington event the day prior in support of the wider NZSAE whānau. Our partnership with NZSAE plays a vital role in our commitment to strengthening the association and events community across Aotearoa.

On Sunday evening, we had the pleasure of hosting a small group of Australian PCOs and event planners at the newly reopened MOTAT Aviation Hall.

Guests were treated to an intimate dinner under the wings of aviation history, with exceptional catering by Collective Hospitality and soulful live music from the incredibly talented Nathan Fry. The evening was brought to life by the charismatic Andie Spargo, who entertained as historic aviator characters with a perfect touch of humour.

A heartfelt thank you to our amazing event partners MOTAT (Museum of Transport and Technology) and Collective Hospitality, and to the Auckland Convention Bureau for making this famil possible. ✈️🍽️🎶
