New Zealand International Convention Centre

The New Zealand International Convention Centre (NZICC) is a joint venture between the NZ Government and SkyCity Entertainment Group for a space that will accommodate up to 3150 delegates for conferences, host up to 33 meetings at any one time and provide a public laneway with hospitality and retail tenants.

The NZICC is anticipated to be complete in 2025.

Designed collaboratively alongside event industry experts, the NZICC is a vertically stacked, flexible and modern building, creating a hub of innovation and positive exchange integrated into the fabric of a vibrant city. The NZICC will offer:

  • A venue that is designed around giving delegates fast and effortless transitions between meeting, exhibition, pre-function, banquet and performance spaces.
  • A glazed facade providing delegates with an inviting and transparent connection to the vibrancy of the city, while allowing views of Auckland’s natural beauty, from the Waitakere Ranges to the Waitemata Harbour.
  • Close proximity to Auckland’s innovation ecosystem – universities, business headquarters and innovation hubs – allowing event organisers to tap into New Zealand’s leading knowledge centres.
  • An integrated atrium and public laneway encouraging networking and enhancing the delegate experience within a city full of excitement and sophistication, with over 4,500 4+ star hotel rooms, dining precincts, shopping and entertainment all within 10 minutes walking distance.
  • Configurable spaces presenting opportunities for a wide range of events with intimate meeting spaces on all levels, pre-function capacity for 2,700 people, convention capacity for 3,150 and one-off events for 4,000.
