Tucked deep in the Southern Alps, beneath starlit skies and craggy peaks, lies one of New Zealand’s most breathtaking luxury escapes: Flockhill. Aat the end of May, it becomes the backdrop for a truly unforgettable event.
Conversation for a Cure isn’t just another charity event — it’s an immersive experience that blends fashion, storytelling, fine food, and purpose. Hosted by Petra Bagust, with renowned fashion designer Karen Walker as the special guest, this exclusive overnight experience invites a small group of guests to connect, indulge, and contribute to vital breast cancer research.
Guests begin their journey with champagne on arrival and a progressive lunch at Flockhill’s stunning Sugarloaf restaurant. With Karen Walker at the table, this is no ordinary lunch — it’s a moment of inspiration and connection, set against panoramic mountain views.
After an afternoon of conversation and exploration, the experience deepens with a fireside cocktail hour and an intimate three-course dinner paired with curated wines — again with Karen and Petra as your hosts. Stories are shared, ideas exchanged, and support for a breast cancer cure becomes more than a donation, it becomes a collective mission.
As the evening winds down, guests retreat to their private luxury villas — spacious, architectural sanctuaries nestled within the high-country landscape. Each suite offers total seclusion, warmth, and panoramic views to wake up to.
The following morning, guests are treated to a guided lakeside experience at Lake Pearson, rounding out a overnight experience designed to nourish the soul, spark connection, and accelerate the fight for a cure.
This is more than a stay. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience Flockhill in extraordinary company, for an extraordinary cause.
