An award-winning venue in the heart of Hamilton, Claudelands Conference & Exhibition Centre is a fresh and inspiring location for your next business event.
Set on 34 hectares of beautiful parkland and with linked rooms and spaces that can be expanded, reduced or used in combinations to suit, Claudelands is a flexible venue with plenty of space.
Claudelands offers a range of convenient features and services – from its 11 break-out rooms, range of pre-function spaces and integrated audio visual systems, to its ultra-fast fibre optics to the building, high-quality caterings services and complimentary on-site car parking.
The main conference space, the Heaphy Room, is 1,000sqm and can seat 900 or up to 700 banquet-style, with the option of dividing the room into three separate spaces. Standing alongside the conference centre is:
• A 6000-capacity arena, suitable for large seated banquets and conference plenary sessions
• A combined 10,000 square metres of indoor and outdoor exhibition space
• Character function space, The Grandstand
To complement the high quality of its venue, Claudelands maintains exclusive partnerships with industry-leading companies Montana Food and Events and Vidcom New Zealand Ltd. Based on site these partners provide optimum service in catering and audio visual, communications and equipment for all conferences and functions. Among the offering, Claudelands also has a complete in-house exhibition build team, technical services and equipment hire, as well as a dedicated venue conference and exhibition team.
This four-star conference centre is located a short 10 minute walk from Hamilton’s CBD, with easy access to the city’s accommodation facilities and its thriving hospitality scene, and offers ample on-site parking.
With flexible spaces, quality facilities and a talented team, Claudelands Conference & Exhibition Centre offers everything you need for a seamless event.
Standing 23-metres high, Claudelands’ colourful and distinct design is a reflection of the unique cultural and ecological nature of the area. The architect and design team consulted with ecological and cultural advisers to ensure references from the history of the site were incorporated into the venue’s architecture, interior and landscape design.
Consultation with local iwi revealed a pre-European relationship with the natural landscape of Claudelands Park. This was one of the largest remnants of indigenous forest and an area renowned as native bird hunting ground – also known as ‘Te Papanui’ (a bird snarer’s seat). Many of the design elements of Claudelands derive from the culture and heritage of Te Papanui.
The narrative of the forest canopy inspired the Arena Veil design, the principal facade of Claudelands. The structural columns remind us of majestic trees that covered Te Papanui, and the ‘dancing spears’ recall the movement of the tao or hunting spears. The flight of the native birds is reflected in Claudelands’ distinctive exterior colours – rich kokako blue, bold kaka red, the flash of orange tieke feathers and the bright yellow hihi.
And because every experience begins with a warm welcome, conference centre visitors are greeted with the symbol of kahu huruhuru, or feathered cloak, upon entering the venue, as well as the basket weave design within the main conference spaces that celebrates the weaving together of people.
Award-winning in both its design and operations, Claudelands has received a number of awards since its opening in June 2011 including the Entertainment Venues Association of New Zealand (EVANZ)’s ‘Supreme Venue of the Year’ Award in 2014.
The award-winning Claudelands Conference & Exhibition Centre offers a range of services and facilities including:
• A stunning 6000-capacity auditorium, ideal for large seated banquets and conference plenary sessions
• A four-star conference centre
• 10,000sqm of integrated indoor and outdoor exhibition space
• The Grandstand, a delightful character function space set within the picturesque grounds of Claudelands Park, with seating up to 100
• Integrated audio visual systems and ultra-fast fibre optics to the building
• Complimentary on-site car parking for delegates
• An in-house exhibition build team, technical services and hire equipment
• Exclusive on-site catering partner, Montana Food and Events
• Industry-leading audio visual partner Vidcom
• Central city location within walking distance to the CBD and accommodation
• Central North Island location, close to Auckland, Tauranga, Rotorua and Taupo
Claudelands is part of the H3 group, alongside other premier Hamilton event venues including FMG Stadium Waikato and Seddon Park, and services such as Technical Services, Turf Services and Spoilt For Choice corporate hospitality.

Fresh experiences await delegates in Waikato
Claudelands is located in Hamilton, in the heart of New Zealand's Waikato region.
Situated in the heart of the North Island within 90 minutes’ drive of Auckland, Tauranga and Rotorua, the diverse Waikato region is well-known for its nature-based tourism, underground adventure and iconic Waikato River, yet is a region still largely undiscovered by business event delegates.
The region offers something for all visitors, from Hamilton’s urban attractions and the international award-winning Hamilton Gardens, to the stunning black sand surf beaches of Raglan and countless walking trails through the rolling hills and ancient bush-clad mountains that shape the landscape.
The subterranean world of black water rafting, glow worms and cave exploration at Waitomo Caves will be a hit with all ages, as would the stunning surroundings of Hobbiton™ Movie Set, while the finer things in life, including boutique golf courses, gourmet eateries and rejuvenating natural spring spas, are also found throughout the region.
Unlike New Zealand’s larger centres, Hamilton and the surrounding Waikato region offer a change of scenery and plenty of fresh experiences for your next business event.
