Situated in the heart of the National Library of New Zealand, the Tiakiwai Conference Centre is an event destination cloaked in history, knowledge, and cultural significance.
Featuring contemporary design, cutting-edge technology, and multi-purpose spaces, the Tiakiwai Conference Centre is an ideal setting for seminars, conferences, performances, and presentations.
With a focus on functionality, flexibility, and a can-do attitude, our team will work closely with you to provide innovative, personalised solutions that will bring your event to life and leave a lasting impression on your guests.
The Tiakiwai Conference Centre offers multiple spaces that accommodate a variety of events and provide an integrated experience, including our newly constructed Auditorium, open foyers, intimate exhibition areas, and configurable meeting rooms.
Located in Wellington’s government precinct, close to bus and train stations, the waterfront, and bustling CBD, the Tiakiwai Conference Centre will bring your guests to a vibrant part of the city rich with cultural attractions, stunning scenery, and retail opportunities.
Bring your guests together in one of our many spaces, and explore the rest of the Library, including the multi-award winning
He Tohu
exhibition, HOME café, our shop, gallery, and much more. A unique experience awaits you, so get in touch with us today.
Auditorium (Taiwhanga Kauhau)
– Rated as “one of the best small auditoria in the Asia-pacific region”, our state-of-the-art Auditorium features an acoustic-enhancing design, the latest AV systems, AV control room, presenters’ preparation room, smart lectern with confidence monitor and AV user interface, configurable stage, and 170 seats for your guests.
Seminar Rooms (Thorndon and Pipitea)
- Situated opposite our Auditorium, these rooms can be used separately as small meeting rooms or combined to form a large space ideal for Auditorium overflow audiences, breakouts, or self-contained presentations and workshops.
Tiakiwai Foyer
– Our Tiakiwai Foyer provides direct access to our event facilities on our lower ground floor, including our Auditorium, Seminar Rooms, and plate-up kitchen. Although not a self-contained event space, it can be used as a breakout space or to host Auditorium overflow audiences. It features assorted soft seating, a reception desk with coat-check, and a multi-screen display that allows events to be live-streamed from our Auditorium.
Te Ahumairangi Foyer
– This space welcomes visitors to the Library and provides direct access to many of our spaces and attractions. This open, dynamic space can be configured with AV technology, furniture, and other equipment to accommodate large-scale receptions, ceremonies, banquet dinners, and cocktail functions.
Programme Rooms (Te Wehenga and Malaga Pasifika)
– These rooms conveniently connect to our Te Ahumairangi Foyer, and are ideal for presentations, meetings, and workshops. Like our Seminar Rooms, they can be used separately or combined to form a large space.
Turnbull Room
– Branching out from our Te Ahumairangi Foyer, our Turnbull Room is a small, boutique space rich with possibility. Featuring polished wooden floors and white marble pillars that give it a unique feel; this space can be configured to suit a variety of intimate events.
The Tiakiwai Conference Centre removes the hassle from planning your event by endeavouring to provide everything you need in-house, including spaces, staff, furniture, equipment, and a plate-up kitchen; for single, all-inclusive prices.
As well as offering our event spaces individually for half-day (4 hours), full day (8 hours), and day and evening hire (12 hours), we also offer a series of packages that provide complimentary combinations of our spaces for single, discounted prices.
Our experienced team provide hand-on support for your event, including setup/pack-down, general assistance, and AV support. Our team can also enhance your event by providing your guests with private tours of our exhibitions, including the multi-award winning
He Tohu
.
For technically complex events in our Auditorium, our technology partner can provide an experienced technician to handle all aspects of your AV requirements.
Although we do not offer in-house catering, we work with a range of catering partners that can satisfy a myriad of dietary requirements.
Entrusted with safeguarding our nation’s documentary heritage and taonga, the National Library is one of the safest buildings in the country in terms of its earthquake and fire safety ratings. Our event spaces are also climate controlled, so you will be safe and comfortable when you hold an event with us. Get in touch with us today to start planning your next event.
