TSB Stadium

I visited TSB Stadium for the NZ Tattoo & Art Festival. It is a fascinating event even if you are not, like me, into this sort of thing. It’s a big event, body illustration exercise on an industrial scale. Just add some bikes and live music and the all-day entertainment is pretty much guaranteed.Venue is good, but felt on very hot day a bit stuffy inside. Well worth making a trip from Wellington.#taranakilikenoother

There for the basketball and had a thoroughly enjoyable time with the family watching and cheering on the Taranaki Air, unsuccessfully as it turned out, but the kids still had a great time! Only gripe was no wifi coverage so couldn't post up about the event until I got home in the evening, and it is a council venue so that's under their control to sort out if they wanted

Great hall well set out for large amount of people. Clean rest rooms.

Was awesome first time going to an event there with my daughter and my grandchildren

This stadium is used for large gatherings. It is used for sports events like basketball, netball,school sport exchanges and boxing. It also hosts various live theatre shows. Different groups use it during the day. Line dancing classes for older people is one of them. It is also used for funerals which are too large for a normal church. We held a combined Catholic church gathering on Sunday 8th October which hosted around 1000 Catholics.. We used half the stadium for the actual Holy Mass and the other half was used for everyone to mingle and share finger foods and drinks afterwards. The seating is very plentiful and it combines comfortable chairs and stadium seating. There's also seating high up on the second level.There's a very adequate cafe which sells all types of hot foods , snacks and drinks for patrons. The toilets are clean and well maintained. It is wheelchair accessible and parking is plentiful as it is also caters for horse racegoers.

Great parking facilities, close to a number of parts of town (within walking distance). Great facilities for group functions

Great venue, why is it not used more often. Would rather come to TSB than Auckland

We enjoyed the basketball, but thr stadium is a bit dated. Its great that so many children come to the basketball, but their constant games of chase means that your view is occasionally blocked and that the noise is high due to the wooden steps and bench seating. Im all for kids enjoying a night out, but also feel that patrons who pay a fair price should be able to view and enjoy what they pay to view.

Played indoor bowls here for a national tournament and it was a fantastic hall, easy to get and clean amenities. Would say if there was anything that let it down was the cafe. Did not have enough food throughout the day.

Beautiful place and really good infrastructure…
