Wellington WOW Factor

Known and loved for its tucked-away bars, quirky cafes, stunning harbour and of course ever-changing and unpredictable weather, New Zealand’s capital city is a true wonder.

Whether you are discovering Wellington for the first or 50th time, there is so much to see and do that every visit can feel brand new.

During the cooler months, Wellington’s ‘wow’ is found in the incredible events visiting the city, the thriving gallery scene and the cosy eateries and bars.

Of course, the World of WearableArt is always worth a weekend trip. The spectacular event attracts cutting-edge talent from around the world, from designers to dancers, aerialists, musicians and performers.

This year, the competition is taking place from 29 September – 16 October.

There is also Wellington on a Plate, a foodies heaven, and incredible shows including Les Miserables for the theatre lovers. Whatever your flavour, Wellington is full of wonderful events to check out.

For those who love to eat and drink, the culinary scene is second to none, with an array of new openings, wine bars, breweries and of course the very best caffeine spots.

Enjoy all Wellington has to offer, as there is plenty.
