About Aotearoa Art Fair

Aotearoa Art Fair is a contemporary art fair, not a permanent gallery, held over four days each autumn at the Viaduct Events Centre on the Auckland waterfront. The 2027 fair runs from 6 to 9 May 2027. About 65 galleries from Aotearoa, Australia, Europe and the Pacific show painting, sculpture, photography, ceramics and installation, and the site says the fair suits visitors who are new to art as well as collectors. The organisation's listed address is 161 Halsey Street in the Auckland CBD.

Outside the fair, a Sculpture Trail runs along the Viaduct Harbour waterfront with over 20 sculptures. Applications for the 2027 fair are open to commercial galleries and artist-run spaces with a strong exhibition history and at least four shows a year. Gallery comments on the site describe a well organised fair with an engaged audience, strong sales and large crowds from across New Zealand and Australia. The fair is run by Sue Waymouth and her team.
