New Zealand's premier contemporary art event showcases the region's leading galleries and offers the opportunity to view and purchase works by the most sought-after artists in the Antipodes.

In addition to the 40 plus exhibitions, commissioned projects and installations, visitors can take in guided tours, artist talks and daily forums and panel discussions, with speakers from around the globe, all of which are included in the price of admission.

After a few hours, you can recharge for more art with a nice lunch and a glass of wine while looking over the harbour in the cafe and wine bar upstairs.
