Cinema in Auckland

“Very interesting to watch part of the rehearsal, and what goes on behind the scenes of a stage production.”

“Awesome place to get your coffee on the run. We always make a quick stop when we close by.”

“Be there a few times for performance or seminars. It may look obsolete in terms of architecture/interior, but the acoustic effects are still stunning. My only complaint is the seats. It's reasonable comfortable. When it gets pushed straight, somewhere the metal parts make a very loud bang sound.”

“Very interesting neighbourhood cinema!”

“Visited the theatre for the ballet of lights. The theatre seating is really comfortable and even has a mini table that folds up which is great to hold drinks and food. Parking is easy and there are snacks at the bar.”

“Enjoyed the music and venue. Pity they were not always in tune. But it was a step back down memory lane.”

“I've been hiring the Raye Freedman Arts Centre & Theatre facilities to host shows for more than 15 years! Great team to work with, beautiful stage, always clean & tidy. Lots of space backstage. Highly recommend!”

“Here’s a polished, positive Google-style review based on your example: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What an amazing place! Just visited the new climbing facility in Auckland and it blew me away. The setup is modern, safe, and seriously fun. We were there trying out the new climbing venture and the kids absolutely loved it. Such a great way to get them off the devices and give them a real personal challenge — watching them overcome their fears and push themselves was awesome. Highly recommend for families, beginners, and anyone looking for a confidence-boosting adventure!”

“Good open place for community to use for free, stage and Amphitheatre”

“Really helped my decision between macbook m3 15" and m4 13". Very insightful. Decided on m3 15". Thank you especially to the person at JB who I did not but should have asked his name.”

“Cosy club rooms and high quality musical theatre is created by this organization”

“Mitch and his team member were so helpful today while I purchased a new camera for my business. Great, friendly customer service which made the shopping experience so much more enjoyable. Kind, knowledgeable workers with next level customer service. Thanks Mitch & team!”

“Very convenient theatre, decent size approximately 800 seating capacity.”

“Definitely a must to check out if your in the heart of the city, was designed for the rugby World Cup but has since been transformed in a rec centre and exhibition centre as well. Was attacked by a tornado recently so have been sent in to do repair work will post more pics in time for update”

“Had our grad here and nice historical clean venue”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience at Area 51 - Auckland Adventure Park Our recent visit to Area 51 at Auckland Adventure Park was nothing short of fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Check-in was seamless, and the staff efficiently sorted out our wristbands. We appreciated that each type of pass was color-coded, making it easy to differentiate between different activities—such a thoughtful and organized system! The food at the reception was surprisingly good and well-priced. There was a great selection for both adults and kids. We especially loved the kids’ meal options, which came with drinks—perfect for families looking to grab a quick bite before heading off for more adventure. It wasn’t just about convenience; the food was delicious too! From the reception, you can either head down to the lower part of the park, where there’s a fun kids’ playground, or make your way up to the bus stop for the ride up the hill. The Mitsubishi Rosa bus ride was comfortable, offering a scenic route to the upper part of the park. Up there, the real adventure begins—luge rides, the exhilarating zip line, and the thrilling Shooting Star! One thing that stood out to us was the atmosphere. Right outside the reception, there’s a luge car on display along with a price list for each of the activities, which really adds to the excitement and anticipation. Plus, there’s a huge screen showcasing all the activities the park offers. It’s a clever way to get everyone hyped up and makes it easy to plan your day. The park is well-organized, clean, and full of fun activities for everyone. Whether you’re with family or friends, there’s something for every age group. We’ll definitely be returning, and we highly recommend Area 51 at Auckland Adventure Park to anyone looking for a thrilling adventure!”

“I’ve taken my kids to Auckland Adventure Park a few times and they absolutely love the luge and the 4D cinema! It’s a fantastic place for children aged 4 through to teens. For younger kids—especially those in preschool and primary school—it’s an amazing venue for birthday parties. Their castle-themed party room is a real highlight, perfect for children who love medieval and knight-themed adventures. For older kids, the zipline and VR games offer plenty of excitement too. Highly recommended for a fun family day out or a memorable birthday celebration!”

“I have changed over to my prescription meds pickup to Chemist Warehouse Silverdale recently as prices are way better and the stock is 5x larger than regular pharmacies. It is always busy there with plenty of helpful staff often stocking up shelves. Most know where stuff is.”

“I've been visiting Gatau House Cafe recently and absolutely love it. Their coffee is consistently delicious, and the cakes are just amazing — fresh, flavorful, and a perfect match with a cup of coffee. As a student, I really appreciate the discount they offer, which makes it even more enjoyable. The service is superb, the staff are always friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The atmosphere in the cafe is wonderful too - calm, cozy, and relaxing, making it a perfect spot to study, catch up with friends, or just unwind. Highly recommend Gatau House to anyone looking for a great coffee and cake experience.”

“Always enjoy attending a play at ATC.”

“I can't speak on the inner workings of the academy, but I recently travelled to Auckland specifically to see their production of Legally Blonde the Musical. I had no prior knowledge of or experience with APAA, but I was absolutely blown away by the show. The performers are insanely talented and you can tell they were thoroughly enjoying themselves. I particularly liked how they managed to include the younger kids in the show, since Legally Blonde isn't typically a show where younger kids are cast. They worked the younger performers into the show seamlessly, and they all seemed so excited to have their chance to shine (they were also incredibly talented, especially for their age!). The performers in the lead roles had seriously insane, Broadway-level talent in both singing, dancing, and acting. Super excited to visit again and watch their future shows!”

“Fantastic show for kids and adults. My 5 year old daughter loved it.”

“Studied at South Seas for 2 years doing their Animation course and I couldn't be happier with the facilities. The school is amazing and the staff are all fantastic and friendly. Joining South Seas was like gaining a second family and it was an incredible experience.”

“Tyler has done an awesome job with starting this studio!!!”

“Greg and the team are very knowledgeable and excellent to deal with. They supplied high quality English velvet stage curtains and staging blacks for one of the schools I work with. The price was reasonable and the service was excellent. I thoroughly recommend them.”

“Can't wait until they are fully restored/refurbished. Super exciting and Auckland is looking forward to it!! All the best team, you will be another huge plus for the Arts and Culture Scene in Auckland!”

“Friendly staff. Nice book selections”

“Fabulous dinner :) We came for a meal before a show at the Q theatre, and enjoyed the best burgers in town! Great presentation, flavour and price, thanks so much!”
