“A great theatre for medium size productions”

“Great garden magics with live music organised every January”

“Attended an absolutely amazing end of term play. The activity across the stage was riveting and captivating. One of the best plays i have ever had the privilege of attending. Time flew and the young actors displayed skill beyond their years.”

“Fabulous venue in keeping with it's era. Went to a great show- Elton vs Billy Duelling Pianos - Cam and Sam from Wellington. Great night out!”

“Friendly staff, easy booking via text and comfortable seating. Small, but really like it, as I struggle with the noise level at bigger cinemas. And sometimes, I want to watch a movie on a big screen :)”

“The Maori Sidesteps were wonderful. Great music, great comedy and some important messages to top it off.”

“Always a great experience. It makes me feel like I’m back in a 90’s movie theatre.”

“A wonderful theatre experience. The building and it's decor are breathtaking. The staff were friendly and helpful. The show was excellent. It was an unplanned night out but what a night!”

“Wētā Cave is a must-visit in Wellington for anyone interested in Hollywood movies and the magic behind them. The experience offers an incredible behind-the-scenes look at how iconic Hollywood films are brought to life, with detailed props, costumes, models, and displays showcasing the craftsmanship and creativity involved. Seeing the level of detail up close gives you a whole new appreciation for what goes into blockbuster filmmaking. The atmosphere is relaxed yet inspiring, and the staff are passionate and knowledgeable, happily sharing insights and stories from major film productions. It’s an easy and enjoyable stop while exploring Wellington or the Miramar area, and the overall experience feels immersive and well worth the ticket. The store is also a highlight, packed with unique collectibles and memorabilia. If you love Hollywood films or creative storytelling, Wētā Cave is an experience you shouldn’t miss”

“Great classic theatre still.in good condition. Very helpful volunteers and ushers. Views of stage from every seat. Been there for a music show and comedy show. Great acoustics for both”

“Legendary place, good architectural gift on Wellington. It's a classic and iconic multifunction building on lower Cuba .”

“Great place to watch a movie, especially for Lord of the Rings fans. Watching The War of the Rohirrim here was a special experience. The theater’s charm and atmosphere added to the magic. Definitely worth a visit!”

“Hidden gem. This place's esthetic is true Japanese and yet, it's blended so well with good world beer and the art of conversation. Dominic, the bar owner made me feel welcomed and we chatted about the world and beer for ages. They made me great beer recommendations and made me a stonkin' vegan sandwich (pulled jackfruit). Low-key. Friendly. Tasty beer and snacks. Top marks!”

“So cute and cosy move theatre❤️”

“Great little cinema with cosy seating for two.”

“The Events Centre is a brand new development with the latest audio visual equipment for conferencing and events. The spaces has all new amenities, facilities and class leading infrastructure to support any size of event up to a maximum of 1200 delegates (static audience).”

“A sweet and welcoming venue. "The Heiress" was a world class performance! Loved our night at the Gryphon.”

“First time here. Fabulously classic well-maintained small town theatre. Two lovely women welcomed a small number of patrons seeing Ms Information. No mainstream New Plymouth theatre took the risk. Congratulations Kings for showing this film.”

“While Katherine Mansfield did not live in this particular house for very long, the house is filled with lots of memorbillia and exhibits an extensive timeline board of her life. You could spend a hours here reading this and admiring, not only the house but the well presented garden. Any easy walk from the CBD where we were staying”

“We had a wonderful experience. It was a very nice, spacious room with great amenities. We were lucky enough to have been given a room upgrade. Great location within walking distance to a lot of different things (beach, museum, markets, Courtney Place, Cuba street).”

“A wonderful organization doing important work. They have a range of useful and interesting things in their eco-shop as well. If you are interested in living sustainably in Wellington, I recommend you check it out.”

“Awesome hall with everything you need for an event”

“Gray location with plenty of parking. Large cafe style area for food and beverages and many lovely wee nooks to wait for your movie in. Sofas and cushions. Good food and coffee.”

“It doesn't matter how many times you go here, it never gets old. The roses are gorgeous, and the plants are so well cared for. I wish I could live in the begonia house!”

“What a cool little bar. Locate the sign on the street and walk up the stairs. The entrance has no real sign, there is just a closed door and when opened reveals a funky bar. Cool atmosphere, would be great in winter on a cosy winter night but we enjoyed it on a hot summers night. Just stopped for one drink but wish we could have stayed longer.”

“The best ramen I've found in Wellington so far - hearty flavourful broth, perfectly soft-boiled egg, thin juicy pork ... Well worth the exploration up the mysterious stairs for the authentic vibes and chill J-Rock playlist. Definitely gonna start taking friends and family here!”
