Meeting Newz November / December 2022

[TARANAK I completely refurbished to provide an accessible, adaptable and efficient space that removes delegates from the chaos of the street above into deluxe comfort. Perfect for pre-show client hosting events, the Theatre Royal Lounge also suits stand alone cocktail parties, product launches, Christmas functions and weddings. Coming up in 2025 is the TSB Showplace’s centenary year when projects planned around the celebrations could be incorporated into a business event. TSB STADIUM With its smart design functions, and 2,200 square metres of uninterrupted floor space, TSB Stadium can accommodate commercial events, trade shows or gala dinner functions for up to 800 people. The conference and exhibition space can be turned around for an evening dinner, and a mezzanine floor offers two rooms for smaller meetings, workshops, presentations or breakout spaces. There is ample car parking on-site. Recently the venue has installed new large digital screens that can be utilised for event signage and sponsor advertising. Coming up, the venue is upgrading its bathroom facilities which are due to be completed in late 2023. BOWL OF BROOKLANDS Taranaki's biggest and most iconic concert venue, the Bowl of Brooklands, is situated within the beautiful Pukekura Park. This is the perfect venue to wow guests for an evening function. There’s something special about being on the stage where Sir Elton John has performed to thousands of fans. With the natural amphitheatre and permanent stage over the lake, it provides a fantastic location not only for concerts up to approx 15,000 but for small to medium sized events for up to 350 people on the stage. YARROW STADIUM Currently undergoing redevelopment, Yarrow Stadium is a legendary venue in the region with stunning views over Mount Taranaki. Each of its Meeting Suites can accommodate up to 80 people and will be available in early 2023 with the larger conference facilities and proposed complex completion due in 2024. ZERO WASTE – NPEV As a council department, New Plymouth Event Venues (NPEV) has, and continues to take, progressive measures to reduce waste at its venues and events, in alignment with the New Plymouth District Council goal to achieve zero waste from council operations by 2026. The key strategies adopted include to firstly rethink and reduce the waste items brought in; to select reusable, recyclable, compostable items forming a plan to manage and successfully separate those streams once in the venue; and organise to remove the waste responsibly, noting volumes for reporting and goal-setting. Over the last year NPEV and event organisers have achieved an 87% diversion rate across all events, with 11 tonnes of waste being recycled or composted.
