Produced in partnership with Business Events Industry Aotearoa
As the final deadline approaches next Friday 11 April, we invite you to secure your place at New Zealand’s premier business events trade show. MEETINGS 2025 is your opportunity to connect with the nation’s top suppliers across accommodation, venues and event services – all in one powerful two-day gathering.
For qualified Hosted Buyers, we’ve designed an exceptional experience that begins the moment you land in Auckland. Your journey includes return flights courtesy of Air New Zealand, accommodation at one of our thirteen host hotels and access to the MEETINGS Welcome Function and Celebration where you can forge greater industry connections that continue long after MEETINGS concludes.
The core of your experience will be your carefully curated appointments with handpicked exhibitors representing every facet of New Zealand’s diverse business events landscape. From immersive outdoor activities to cutting-edge convention spaces and unique cultural experiences, you’ll discover solutions tailored to your specific needs.
Our Australian buyers can opt for the Fully Hosted option with 30 appointments, or the Semi-Hosted option with up to 20 appointments. Both options include access to our unique familiarisation programmes.
The Auckland Convention Bureau has prepared two exceptional pre-MEETINGS experiences: a three-day Pre-Familiarisation from Saturday 7 June to Monday 9 June (limited availability) and a Host City Familiarisation on Tuesday 10 June where you will experience Auckland’s renowned manaakitanga (hospitality) and a range of local attractions.
There will also be an opportunity for you to extend your New Zealand experience post-MEETINGS through the Stay On & Discover More option in other selected regions.
Over the past 29 years, MEETINGS has earned its reputation as the must-attend event for business event professionals. Past buyers credit MEETINGS with providing the partnerships and inspiration that elevated their most successful events.
With just days remaining until next Friday’s deadline, we encourage you to complete your application immediately so as not to miss out. Find out more information and apply today and take the first step toward transforming your event portfolio.
