Earlier this year, The Historic Village opened Durham Barracks, featuring a boardroom for twenty guests and picturesque views onto the Village Green Next in line is the Balcony Room, scheduled to open in March 2025. Designed to accommodate up to 200 people in a cocktail style setting, the space opens onto a wrap-around balcony offering stunning views over The Historic Village.

With its rich historic charm and modern amenities, the Balcony Room sets the perfect backdrop for business seminars, dinners, and workshops. Another option, The Cargo Shed, originally constructed in the 1920s has recently been renovated into an event venue sitting ocean-side overlooking Te Awanui, Tauranga Harbour. “This iconic venue preserves its original character with the functionality of a modern event space,” Heyward says. “I’m looking forward to again attending the Business Events Expo in November alongside Tourism Bay of Plenty and Mercury Baypark to share with potential clients the opportunities that await them in Tauranga.” The Village Hall Tauranga’s expanding role as a business hub in New Zealand, combined with its strategic location, attractive lifestyle and coastal setting, has sparked growing interest from business event organisers. meeting newz [september october] 2024 [43]
