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.

The Venues

Based at New Zealand’s most iconic racecourse, Ellerslie Events offers a variety of spaces for everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations. Whatever your budget or guest list, we know how to deliver an event that runs smoothly and feels unforgettable.

We also manage Pukekohe Park – a South Auckland venue with expansive indoor and outdoor areas, perfect for school balls, conferences, community events and celebrations needing extra room to spread out.

"We have held numerous events at the Ellerslie Events Centre over the years - we have always been impressed with their food (yummy food and portion sizes are good!) - the staff are always friendly, and they go above and beyond. A special mention to Zayani who makes the event run like clockwork and nothing is ever too much for her. She always goes the extra mile. Thank you!"
