About Us

Ellerslie Events

The best events aren’t just the ones people enjoy – they’re the ones people talk about for years to come.

We’re not “just another venue”. We’re a collection of spaces on one accessible site at Ellerslie, with 22 rooms to choose from – plus multiple outdoor spaces – and a team that knows how to make events run seamlessly.

And if you’re looking for something a little different, we also manage Pukekohe Park – a versatile South Auckland venue set on expansive park grounds, ideal for local corporate events, school balls, and outdoor gatherings.

What our customers are saying

"Organising an event at Ellerslie was seamless from start to finish. Communication pre-event was timely and efficient. On the day we were very well looked after by all the staff from room set up, catering and av. We would definitely run future events at this facility. Thank you to everyone who ensured our event was a success."

  • Alfrinston College Ball

"Such a great venue and perfect for our National AGM.  All the arrangements and booking were handled professionally with excellent communication. The ease of parking, great staff and catering made it a very suitable choice. Also less than a half hour commute from the airport made it easy for those travelling for the meeting. I would highly recommend using Ellerslie Events Centre and will definitely use it again."

Held my daughters 21st birthday at Ellerslie’s Tote on Ascot and what a beautiful space it is! As the premiere space at Ellerslie it sure does deliver. Food was great, space is amazing when entering, close parking for guests and the team behind the scenes were fantastic to work with: Zayani with the initial planning and answering all my emails, Lola our floor manager, Meli and Jeff behind the bar and even Lola on security. Great team helped to run a great night…would highly recommend.
