The Karori Event Centre will be an inviting, open-fronted venue, where people can pursue their interests and connect with the community in a welcoming, inclusive and safe environment.
A truly flexible venue...
That will retain life, vitality and business in the Western Suburbs area. Now that the St. John’s Hall is gone, this is more essential than ever.
For the community
The Event Centre will meet the needs of all of our Western Suburbs community. It will provide a place for activities, performances, club meetings, celebrations and much more.
Affordable to all
Run on a not-for-profit basis, the Centre will be accessible to everybody at a reasonable cost.
