We suggest saving your unique ticket QR code save in your emails or as a photo on your phone. On the day, you can simply show that code to our events staff and they will scan your registration.  If you prefer to print out the email, that’s all good too. Just bring the copy with you, and we will process from there.

What time does the dinner start and finish?

6.30pm start to 11.30pm end 

Dinner will start in the  Entrance Lobby, level 1, where we will serve roving entrees  – this gives everyone a chance to mix and mingle before being seated.  The Celebration Dinner will be held in the Wellington Foyer, level 2 where we will be serving a main course and dessert. Because of this, we recommend you arrive on time at 6.30pm.  We will be moving into the dining room at 7.15pm.   

What will the menu be for the Celebration Dinner?

We are so happy to be hosting the Celebration Dinner at the iconic Te Papa Museum in Wellington. The menu will be determined very close to the event date, as it is based on seasonal New Zealand cuisine.  There will be an alternate drop of meals.  Two dishes are served alternatively around the table. Guests don't actually order their choice of dish, but the idea is that they are free to swap with their neighbour if they wish. We will also be catering to any dietary requirements stated at ticket purchase.
