Takina Dockway

This is a great addition to Wellington. Marketed strategically, it could be a business attraction for international companies

Went to the Lego expo

Visited the Lego exhibition.Flash as building . Good coffee too.

Food was really excellent - best conference food in a long time. Salmon entree was exquisite, lamb main was beautiful & desserts were good too. Every meal was mouth-watering & plenty of food was provided. Salmon snacks (pictured) were absolutely perfect. Thanks so much for wonderful food at our event!

We selected Te Papa Venues for a team building away day. Very satisfied with the organisation from Martina. She was quick to respond to emails and flexible with change. The venue provides plenty of coffee/large selection of tea/cold water and these are regularly topped up. Very grateful that a whiteboard and large pad of paper is provided as well as individual note pads and pens and optional AV with additional charge. Great variety of morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea options with ample portion sizes. Although they were very flexible with gluten free options, dairy and beef free options were a little lacking. However, the options that were offered were more than satisfactory. Highly recommend with fantastic and attentive service.

Fantastic new facility for Wellington. Quite impressed at the quality of the conference centre and it was great to see the Brickman exhibit to open

We held our Launch in the Rangimarie Room at Te Papa this week. What a smooth, easy process it was from booking the event through to the evening itself. The Venues Team were amazing. They were able to answer any queries very quickly and nothing was too much trouble. The food and beverage service was wonderful and plentiful. The room itself was comfortable and spacious with great views of the harbour. Parking and access are easy and Te Papa staff are very helpful with directions. We will definitely come again and highly recommend Te Papa Venues to everyone.

Heading to the Oceania event space on the day before the Conference I would have got lost without asking the wonderful helpful guide in the Museum foyer. The lift from the ground floor takes you to Level 3 where Oceania is, and signs placed in the corridors point the way from there. Virtual Assistants did the organisation of the event I attended and they were so friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs. The floor space is good for hosting sponsor and sales booths, plenty of room to put the booths in rows with corridor space for attendees to mingle.Coffee and tea was served in window alcoves to take advantage of the harbour views. The food was great, a good variety of finger food during the drinkies happy hour, and tasty lunch.Warm on the first day and cold on the second, they never quite got the air-conditions right. The nearest toilet seemed to be some distance away.
