Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre

Located in the heart of Ōtautahi Christchurch, a vibrant and future-focused city, this architectural and social landmark is known as the gathering place — a welcoming heart in the centre of the city.

Following the completion of key urban regeneration projects, New Zealand’s most walkable city is now home to new businesses, shopping, arts and entertainment precincts, putting Te Pae Christchurch within easy reach of more than 2,500 hotel rooms, and some of the city’s best restaurants, bars, galleries and markets.

The award-winning building and spaces reflect the unique character and culture of the Canterbury region, and feature an array of modern, flexible spaces, including 24 meeting rooms, a 1,400-seat auditorium, 200 booth exhibition hall, riverside banquet room, VIP spaces and organiser offices.

Committed to safeguarding the environment through the sustainable management of resources, Te Pae Christchurch has achieved Toitū Enviromark Gold and Net Carbonzero certification, through applying a range sustainable policies and initiatives throughout the organisation, including buying from local suppliers, environmentally friendly packaging, dehydrating food waste into soil food, and transforming water via our e-water system into a chemical-free cleaning solution.
